I heard your voice today and it took my breath away I saw the sparkle in your eyes and I remembered your silent cries I felt your body shake once more like it did the year before with your tears falling fast you thought the pain would always last but now you've found your dreams you've found the world before you it seems and I held you for just a flash and then my heart was turned to ash for my dreams were made with you in mind you saying goodbye was one I'd hope not find I held back those tears till the moment died denied myself till in the dark I cried still I'll never quite say goodbye and till I find another, perpetuate this lie but for now you'll always be mine a dream for me to wine and dine so one day I'll let you go I'll move on, yet you'll never know for my tears lie beneath the skin trapped for the world I have within |

Beautiful poem, but so filled with saddness. That feeling is shown unto us all at one point. I enjoyed this poem very much! "Even a fool knows you can't touch the stars, but it doesn't stop a wise man from trying." Harry Anderson, "Night Court" *Cassandra Roseen* |

Desperado~ Somewhere tonight a heart is aching ... This is very sensitively done. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

thanks you guys. I appreciate it. I'm fixing to disappear once again, this time for only about two-three weeks, hopefully. by then I should have a computer, internet, and all that stuff. hehe God Bless!

I'll move on, yet you'll never know for my tears lie beneath the skin trapped for the world I have within ----------------------------------- Wow. I loved those last lines... the rest was cool too, but those last lines really drove it home. "Don't let your character get camoflaged with your environment. Find who you are and let it stay in its true colors." --Rachel Joy Scott |
