I found somthing  precious
somthing so beautiful it takes my breath away
I reached to touch this precious Gem to try and make it my own

My heart was healed and my spirit soared and danced on the breeze
My life was changed as I reached out to touch the gem
The thrill I would get as I answered your call
The joy I felt when I heard your voice
You lifted a heavy weight from my mind
You eased my burdens and helped me through the days

All I have are my dreams and a picture or two
As I wait and and look to the future
I waited to make you mine
to call you my wife your child my son
I waited to hold you in my arms
and gaze into your eyes

But the thrills and the joy are gone
to be replaced by worry and despair
My heart grows weary and my mind is heavy
I drag my soul from day to day
Now I cringe and shake as I scream at the world
What does it take to ease this pain
I welcome an end to it all

Is it to late
Am I all out of love
Is my heart broken beyond repair
As I lay alone at night I wonder

There is no broken heart that can't be mended... there is enough love for each soul in this world... a lucky few find it early, for others it takes some time... be patient...

Lovely poem though, Zion...

This is the first poem of yours that I read... so let me WELCOME YOU TO PASSIONS, and I hope that you enjoy your stay here...

regards,
sudhir

I would like to echo Sudhir's words be patient..you certainly have the heart of a lover so you will find another...I've been through that pain and when it ends you always end up wondering whay it took so long to move on because all of a sudden things change almost in the twinkling of an eye..

Very good poem... got your heart right out on your sleeve....take care....ethome..

My heart aches from the pain in this piece...maybe because it's reminds me of flashes of my own life and maybe just because it's written from your heart...You truly captured some very powerful feelings.  My hope is that you found some healing in penning the lines~
