Your absence a presence almost felt As I try to do things all by myself Tears on my pillow before I sleep Bury the memories, bury them deep! Don't know if the tears for you or for me Fragments of dreams, ancient history Tears on the bedding, tears on the floor Finding it hard to move out the door I look at the sky, no answers for me Rueing the time you let me go free Wishing and wanting the things I can't do Hoping and praying to again be with you Whisper to darkness "I'll give up the fight" "Just bury me deep, me cover with night" Oh! then the joy the astounding bliss! To find you waiting at the ending abyss. Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |

Kethry~ You had me caught in sorrow's emotion - and then the beautiful ending. Well done, hon. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Hi Kethry, I too got caught-up in the weave of emotional heartache at beginning towards middle of poem and yet at the end a rainbow of joyful surprise... Lovely write sweetie *~coco~* |

Thanks poets each and every one this little poem, gave lots of fun 'twasn't hard to write ...not at all I called for my muse she came on the run if you read it again, I don't mean to cause trouble you may just find the ending is double.
