Where is your heart?

Sometimes the days
Get down on me,
Sometimes my soul
Is dying on me.

We made mistakes;
We both agree,
I know it was not easy
For you and me.

I shut my eyes
I think of yesterday,
Oh, it’s hard for my heart
To live this way.

Where is your heart?
I want it back.
My heart is calling
Without you I am dead.

It feels like
I’m going crazy,
My heart is craving
You were amazing.

Just thinking of you
God only knows,
The high and lows
of my heart’s sorrows.

Your eyes were born

There isn't a day
That passes by,
Without a dark cloud
Roving in the sky.

My world comes
Crushing down,
In loneliness my spirit
Nowhere to be found.

There isn't a night
Before falling asleep,
Without shedding a tear
Even when I dream.

Your eyes were born
To melt a heart of ice,
And bright with your smiles
In darkness the skies.

There isn't a song I hear
Not to think of you
There isn't a star in the sky.
I haven't named after you

When you lose your love
Life has no meaning
It’s true isn’t lying
My heart never stops crying.

From My Newly Released Book
"Simple Heart" Whispers Love Songs!
 Review
By Ellen Tanner March
New York Best Seller Author

               Anyone who has has ever loved - and loved well - will find
something to appreciate in Ted Kapsalis' book of poems, Simple Heart.
 Sensual love has inspired poets throughout time, and Kapsalis has a gift
for evoking the delights of such love in lively, accessible language.
Here we are told of the warmth of a smile, the thrill of a kiss,
the sensuous caress not only of touch but of words sweetly expressed,
and the yearning of a simple, loving heart:
"Unselfishly tonight I'll unlock the secrets/the devotion of my love/as the
world is watching/my heart shining like a star."

               But Kapsalis' simple heart is an unguarded one, too,
and like so many lovers before him he has known his share of betrayal and loss.
The pain is there in words edged with raw emotion, as
"with her lying eyes...she darkens my dreams of paradise".
Or of hopelessness, as he laments in the poem Tired of Running:
"Good things it's dark. What am I gonna do/when the light comes?"

               Simple, honest and evocative, this is poetry that speaks to the heart,
from the heart.
