(response to Elizabeth's post in poetry challenge) It has been many days Since I saw you last I once saw you often But now that has passed Our paths have diverged You've gone your own way The next time I see you There are things I should say I should tell you first That you've been a great friend A shoulder to cry on One on whom to depend I really should tell you We could have been more I thought you might want that But I could not be sure And so I kept silent I keep silent still Needing to love you Knowing I never will I sit here so lonely Wanting for your smile Wishing you were with me If only for a while... |

Gawd, don't you hate it when you want someone so bad, and instead of telling them, you just sit there in a puddle of your own misery???!!!  ------------------ - poet FemmeFatale "The strongest man in the world is he who stands most alone..." Henrik Ibsen (1826-1906) Norwegian dramatist lyric poet |

Exellent work, deserves a boost up to the top!! Yes, it does suck when you want someone so badly, but don't do anything about it..until you do something.  ------------------ *Krista Knutson* "If I could be an angel, I'd make your every wish come true. But I am only human, just a woman lovin' you..." Trisha Yearwood |
