Blood On The Page Poem by Charlie F. Kane

Blood On The Page



I need to find the words to say how I feel,
But like Cordelia, I cannot heave my heart into my mouth so easily,
Instead I can only take the blood from my veins
And let it bleed across the page,
Because you are to me the sweetest love song ever written,
You are the muse to a better poem than I could ever write.
I want to be with you and never without you,
Though I know it could never be.

Maybe fate has it in for us?
You were just there to destroy me and occupy my time,
Without you my hours would be so lonely,
Because all I can do is think about you and the way we should be,
But the point that keeps annoying me is I know it could never be,
But it does not stop these feelings I have within me,
Because all I want to do is kiss you,
Through the words in these lines,
I want to be the one who’s there for you,
But I can’t as you aren’t even there for me.

I try to write you something,
To say how I feel,
But look at it now- a congealed mass of words,
Tell me, can you see a meaning within this mess?

I really enjoyed this poem ‘Charlie.’ The reason why is because you seem to be able to write with your heart as opposed to your head. This is not necessarily a criticism of other poems but rather praise for this one.
