Spirit oh spirit
Come back to me
Who said
You could fly off free?

Left me alone
Cold, and bared to all
What you left is a shell
Washed up on a shore.

Are you flying free
In some paradise?
Or are you busy somewhere
Scurrying like mice?

Oh spirit, my friend,
You are me, and I you
Two, but one, together
Shining a brilliant hue.

Without you, no delights
No life, like death
My soul, my spirit
You are gone, I am bereft.

Good work!  Liked this one very much.

Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility.

Yet another beautiful poem, tara.
And terribly sad. *sniff* I have been missing you, by the way.

Your spirit is there, it will never completely desert you..(maybe it is on a little vacation..) Take care

the least you can do is let him."
