Picture yourself here, live this poem as you read it, i know many of you have already.


Cold and Alone


I sit alone in a familar place
It's not too cold, though i brought you just in case
The river sits there cold and still
I'm not sure why i'm sitting here but i soon will
I pull out a picture, the one i have of you
I stare at it intently wondering again of the past
What might have been comes to mind again
These thoughts dawn my mind like before
I freeze on the surface but the inside i'm not sure
Your face so delicate and soft
Still I grasp the piture alone, now in the dark
It's so cold in the dark, where are you?
I need you and your no where to be found
I put my head in my hands, the cold goes so deep
I'm lost in thought, even to lost to weep
I stare at the dark image that was in my hands
I wonder of past and present yet still uknown
Why do i sit here so cold and alone?

I like this poem a lot. Who is it about? I like how you take on the qualities of the river in your poem.

I did exactly what you said to do and found myself in a place to often have found myself.
Thank you for the meloncholy nestolgic bliss.
Very effective visuality.

This is an emotion I am afraid of... regret.
I hope you conquered your hopelessness, and have become stronger for it.
