Well the days are long
and the nights they bring the cold
And somewhere in there, the light left your eyes
and I don't know what's gone wrong.

Sometimes I feel like the sky is falling
And sometimes I wonder if my dreams will ever come true
Sometimes I wish that I could reach out to you
And I don`t know what`s gone wrong.

How are you supposed to know how much to give?
How are you supposed to know what you should take?
How are you supposed to know when to look
the other way?
How are you supposed to let go.......


 "The world is never the same
once a good poem
has been added to it."

Well, sometimes when you don't know
What's gone wrong--just let it go;
There are things in life that you weren't meant
To see, to hear, or to augment.
But when to let go?
I wish I could show
you how I did it one time through...
But I cannot,
For I have sought
That answer, just as you!


Beautiful poem, Heather! Beautiful!!
Really, what is the answer?

heather, this is a lovely poem of expression and a moment of self doubt that we all can relate to...letting go...or knowing when to...is one of our hearts hardest questions...very nice work...
and SPYRO..your reply poem was perfect!!
take care...janet marie

 Now for me some words come easy...
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch.
You never knew what I loved in you--
I don't know what you loved in me...
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be...
How long have I been sleeping-
How long have I been drifting alone through the night...
How long have I've dreaming I could make it right...
If I closed my eyes and tried with all my might
To be the one you need...
Jackson Browne

Great poem, Heather. Tough questions....I don't have the answers. To me the answers always seemed to come just when I needed them.

Sounds like my ex and me last two Augusts ago.  I thought he was happy till he told me to go...oh well, you live and learn.  Good Questions Heather, maybe we'll all know the answers one day!!!  

 "I know I should have told you
But I was so afraid you'd leave
And now there's nothing left to say
Well nothing that you'd believe
I never meant to hurt you
With the things I couldn't say
I promise you tomorrow
While denying you today..."
