I will lift my eyes for today
To see that I'm alone
I will hold my hands out for you
But you will still be gone

Oh and I will drink the water
And live another day
I will travel onward
To see what comes this way

Yes I know that I am lonely
I know that I'm afraid
But if I had known you
I know I'd stayed away

Oh and I will cross the fires
If I can stand the pain
I will go on waiting
To see if you come again

Yes I know that I am wanting
I know that it won't last
If I only knew myself
I wouldn't have this past

I will close my eyes for tonight
And know that you're not here
I will lend my lips to kiss you
Then your ghost will disappear

Hi Bob,

Love, Cerenity

I liked this,Bob, nice job..

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Thank you both for reading and taking the time to reply!!!  Cerenity, I would certainly put it to music *sigh* if only I could!  *lol*  erm, besides I think though my singing may cause some permanent damage!

wob..definate lonliness here..we all do this i think..we take what we know isnt good for us while its willing to be there, because its what we really believe we want..we wait for it, we rearrange our lives for it...and when it comes we are elated..and when it goes, we long for it terribly....

anyway, thats what i got out of this one..i hope i'm not so totally "off"!  

very good..nice writing    dg

Bob, Nice writing here, and I hope with this poem some of the pain was released.
