You leave me
everyday
with a promise
of tomorrows
and yet
the yesterdays remain...

I love you
for what you are -
for the dreams
for the wishes
for single smiles
for each moment
you leave within.

I taste the tears
still
feel the tightness
the pain of breathing
the walls so close
the endless seconds of every minute
passing...

Whispers float
so softly by...
I can almost
hear
almost
reach out
almost
touch
almost
want to...

I agree...

....with the statements below. This piece has great possibilities, and places all over where a few images could enrich it greatly. I, too, would remove the ellipses.

I think it

would be a little bit better if you did away with the ellipses, just a suggestion, it just makes it seem like you arent certyain about your words. otherwise a very good poem :)

I like

the idea and the structure in this piece alot

It has some great possibilities.

this verse:

I love you

for what you are -

for the dreams

for the wishes

for single smiles

for each moment

you leave within.

maybe trim it a bit...i know the feeling you are trying to achieve

how does this read to you:

I love you

for what you are -

the dreams

wishes ,and single smiles

for each moment

you leave within.

just a thought.

keep this aside and write it again in 3 months and see how it looks
