Your vacant stare The painful silence Echoes through this empty void Love so beautiful You so vibrant All of it now destroyed You look at me With unseeing eyes How can you miss my pain Not one tear From eyes unblinking I cry and I cry in vain I took for granted You would always be Now I find myself alone So many things I should have said If only I could have known I profess too late My need for you No joy on your slackened face I'm left with naught But my misery In this cold dark silent place One more time I kiss your lips Unmoving unfeeling you lie I take your hand And lose my heart As I wish you one final goodbye... Steven Seaman To thine own self be true... |

I take your hand and lose my heart - such a beautiful but sad poem. One day you will find someone to look after the heart you give them. Thanks for sharing. ((HUGS)) |

I always enjoy reading your poems, this one is no exception. A well thought out and executed poem, thanks for the read. Yes, I admit your general rule. That every poet is a fool: But I myself may serve to show it. That every fool is not a poet. |

The emotion really builds in this as you read on...by the time I read "I take your hand and lose my heart" I was totally captivated. Very nice write about the sad side of romance. James |

As always, your emotion is spilling out onto my desk, and I don't even mind! LOL (wiping it up a bit) Now...where the heck have you been? You know we desperately could use some of your er....cheer in Adult. (ahem!) You know, that's your home too!  You know I'm here if you need to talk. Drop me a line if you wish. Mailbox always open.  |

I have no words to express what your poem made me feel and how magnificent I think it is, I'm afraid I can't do it justice by saying anything except....thank you. |
