I sit at the window
Watching, as the rain falls.
Thoughts of him
bursting through the barriers
of my mind.
Remembering, Oh God, How
I remember.
The memories, writhing, twisting.
Urging me to ask for more
of his time.
I balk, recoiling, from the desire
to do so.
I can not.
I will not!
Oh, to taste his lips,
to feel his arms.
His warm body pressed to mine.
His presence fills my heart
to capacity.

WHY?
I simply ask 'Why' ?
Why can't I forget him?
I want him.
I want him here with me.
HE CAN NOT BE!
I have to accept.
I will accept.
I will go on....Alone,
With the barriers of my mind..
DESTROYED!
And it still rains..

Nice to have you here, Kitty**. There is a lot of emotion in this poem.

Welcome to our little place on the web, and I know you will find friends here. Time is a healer for all it seems, we don't forget but find a comfortable place to put the pain and change its name to a memory!

The most valuable thing you own is a smile, wear it, and share it.
