Well this will be my final post for awhile, so im going to make the most of it.....


~*~ What Might Become ~*~

Have you ever wondered
Just what it is I see
When I look so deep
Into your eyes?
I see our life together
I see our children
I see what might become
Of us together
But most likely not.
I wonder where
I went wrong
Was it when
I gave him my heart,
Or was it really me
That went wrong?
He brought me to you
He doesn’t know
But I’m grateful for that
I had to go through the pain
To become happy with you.
Have you ever seen
Our life together
Have you seen our children
Do you know what might become
Of this relationship?

~*~ Justin ~*~

Hold me close,
Take my heart,
Hold my hand,
I love you.

Kiss my lips,
Love me true,
Just once more,
I love you.


~*~ Only a Dream ~*~

He tries to push his hands,
But I push him away,
Enraging him even more.
I keep insisting
That he stops,
Eventually, he gets the picture,
And drags me to the car,
To take me home.
I sit there and cry,
Not knowing what’s next,
He places his hand on my leg,
And I shiver in fear.
I start to sweat,
And open my eyes,
And heave a sigh of relief,
It was only a dream.

~*~ Goodbye ~*~

It’s been great,
But I’m leaving now.
I’ve been ridiculed
For my writing
When it comes directly
From my heart.
I may be back
From tyme to tyme
But I’m just not sure,
Too many other things,
On my mind.
I’ll still reply,
When I can,
But I’ll not post again.


If you love someone dont put their name in a heart,
put their name in a circle, because a heart can be broken
but a circle is continious.

You already know what I think about this. I really don't think you should be doing this. I'm sorry anyway, but I respect your point of view....

It's been raining since you left me.

Tamma, these were all exceptionally well written hon! Each one! I'm concerned ... I don't know what you are referring to regarding "being ridiculed", because you have terrific talent.

Should there "ever" be a reason that you're uncomfortable in these forums, please contact myself or one of the other moderators immediately. This is a family forum, and all members should feel comfortable and safe posting in this environment.

I will review this further Tamma, and keep writing, you have a genuine talent!

luvz, VS

All of my life
Where have you been
I wonder if I'll
Ever see you again

Aww Tamma please dont go! I love every single poem that you've submitted and i think you have a lot of talent! I'm sorry that you feel your being ridiculed in anyway. There are many critics out there but stay strong in your writing. I was once told that there are no laws in art. I respect your decision but we'll all miss you and be waiting your return! Dont be gone for long!

xoxo,
michele

Wow, "only a Dream" was very powerful.  Please please please don't go!  Please!  You write very moving poems and I hope you keep sharing them.

Tamma, I'm sorry to hear that you are leaving but I know what you are talking about with your poetry being ridiculed.  Sometimes cencorship is more than what cencorship should be.  But this is a free country and what comes from the heart cannot be stopped nor should it be.  Keep writing no matter what and I will hope to see your work soon.

I'm not concieted...I'm convinced.

Tamma....I was here when you first joined our board. It was a pleasure to read and reply to your work because you were eager to learn and improve yourself. You have done this with leaps and bounds. Do not let yourself become discouraged because of the pace of the forums. Be strong in who you are aznd the strength of your work. You are young and strong and talented.

Whatever your decision is I respect it. May the sun shine brightly on your face no matter where your path leads you my friend.  



When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shodows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face...

William Butler Yeats
