I Was Given

I was given a heart
Only to love you
I was given eyes
Only to see you1

Never did I imagine
This would be my state
In love2

Why do I get the feeling
That although the mood has changed
My heart is untouched3

What stage of love is this?
Where I find no peace
Even for a moment4

The lanes where we fell in love
The cities of our dreams
Everywhere I look
I only see you5

I can't help my feelings
You are the one I have given
My heart and soul to6

It's tough for me to
Live without you7

I breathe
Only to love you8

I have been given eyes
Only to see you...

  • Aww, this was beautiful MJ. Is this basedon true life, or is it just a poem.
    Nevertheless, it was great.
    So beautif and deep.
    I love the first stanza. Well done, keep up the good work

    Hm...succinct, but a bit too simple. Didn't dislike it, but not one of your best works. I guess cos the whole "eyes only for you" is getting a bit cliche.

    Great!

    Great poem! Liked it, although I`m not one for love poems and stories. It had good flow, although I felt like I had to stop after each verse. Some, just some, verses could use some extra syllables, which might make it flow easier. Still great! I liked it, and I don`t say that very much about love poems and stories. I like a lot of the Imagery.
