Evening all,

It's been a while since I have produced any poetry so I have decided to share my latest work with you.

When I write poetry I like to express how I am feeling, it helps the flow of the writing come alot more naturally to me, so I hope you enjoy this, it is entitled, 'Why is it?'
Why Is it?

By Scott Murray


Why is it that when I meet you I get that feeling in my bones?

Why is it that when I talk to you I don’t need to say a thing?

Why is it that when I put my arms around you I can’t bear to let you go?

Why is it that when I lay with you I can’t help but stare at you?

Why is it that when I kiss you my world turns upside down?

Why is it that when I make love to you my life feels so complete?


Complete, like I don’t need to carry on living.
Complete, like I have served my life’s purpose.



But, alas, It changes.


Why is it that when I meet you I don’t feel like you’re even there?

Why is it that when I talk to you I feel like I’m on my own?

Why is it that when I put my arms around you It feels like holding air?

Why is it that when I lay with you I can’t help but look away?

Why is it that when I kiss you my lips don’t touch a thing?

Why is it that when I make love to you it feels cold, and pointless?


Pointless, like I am living a lie.
Pointless, like I have nothing left.



But, alas, you’ve changed.


Why is it that you can’t love me as I do you?

Why is it that you can’t talk to me about why you don’t feel the same?

Why is it that I can’t bear to let you go?


But, Alas, I am a fool.

    It's very nice... and very sad. I do hope this isn't the way you really feel about someone... :'(

    Unfortunatley yes, this is the way i feel about someone - to a point, alot of it is exagerrated to a larger scale of emotion but remains to be a passage revealing how I feel at the moment.

    ha...I know how those go...recently, I've discovered a talent for drawing rather odd, sometimes morbid-esque pictures...I don't understand my brain sometimes...8-) although I myself am not too morbid a person, these images come into my head and won't leave...:s
