I saw her from afar
And left her there
The sight was so faded
With suffering glimpses
The distance grew smaller
I saw her for who she was
Knew her for who she wanted to be

A common dream desired
Am emotion was derived
One of heartache and deception
One that lingers in the days

We've found solid ground
On which we plant our dreams
But on days of loneliness
They are trampeled upon by grief

it's my mouth that pushes out this breath..."-FTE

Nice poem, it has a nice dark quality to it that I can relate to. Its sad when good poems like this are lost in obscurity while all the veteran posters get all the replies, so I decided to grant this poem a stay of execution  

Now if only people would read and reply to my stuff more... <hint> <hint>

Good job Nights.  Sorry....   your poem must have sliped by.......  I read all the posts on here and I try to comment on them all.  Good or bad.  Of corse if there bad I'll tell ya... LOL.  Anyway great job! I really like the second stanza.  It's speaks a lot of emotion for so little words.

Ohh.....  I get your hint Mistikman... but dose anyone else?

I like this ALOT. It does have dark qualities which is what I liked about it too. Stuff like this can really touch someone when looked at in a good way.

Wonderful work! Your words are very true and I can relate to your sentiments.  Do keep it up!

I'm really glad you like the poem.  I wasn't sure if i should give it to my friend, because i didn't know how she would react to it.  But after reading your comments i sent it out to her.  Thank you.
