Crowded Room Poem by louis rams

Crowded Room

Rating: 4.7


i thought i saw your face in a crowded room
i turned to look, but you disappeared too soon

the vision of you stayed in my mind

as i felt my heart start to sink
my mind began to race faster
as it tried to think.

i thought of all the things we
had done in the past
and wondered why it did not last.

was it something that i said or done?
was i the foolish one?
did i get you to turn your back on me
or was it that you wanted to be free?

so now i search each and every crowded room
in hopes that i'll find you soon.

just to let you know
that in my heart you'll always be
for you have become a part of me.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Nice work.. In a crowded room I do believe we all see so much sometimes it can be overwhelming.. Crazy too.. Great poem Krista

Very well done. Only the last two lines I think could be possibly somewhere else in the poem. The stanza above it seemed to me it finished the poem. But hey your poems are all wonderfully made! ! !
