I Never Meant To Make You Cry ~*Marge Tindal*~ I never meant to make you cry or cause one tear to fall I never wanted to leave your side for so long you were my all Falling away from each other in distance through the years I had to go - this you know before I shed your tears Faith moves mountains for some and for me it was this time Though I never meant to make you cry this heartache is also mine Somewhere we will meet again perhaps on a train of thought Should you shed a tear of remembrance rest assured it will be caught For every memory has a place in a heart that it calls home Your memory rests in mine You do not cry alone ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Marge~ I never meant to make you cry or cause one tear to fall I never wanted to leave your side for so long you were my all You have written of my heart and life my friend. Your words echo through my soul tonight. You are so right, those tears are always caught . . . no matter where the road leads us. Fabulous work. Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

I know you never really meant to make me cry. I know that I'm the one that you adore. I know you didn't mean to split my head Wide open as you pushed me out the door!  I know you never meant to sprain my neck. That collar was just too tight, anyway And when the gravel cut into my face You didn't mean to throw me down that way. When that car door slammed down hard on my hand And I ducked as my suitcases flew by I'm sure that you felt badly that your aim Caused one of them to hit me in the eye. I know you love me more than words can say And there's no one who loves you more than I. The doc says I will walk again some day... I know you never meant to make me cry  |

'I never wanted to leave your side for so long you were my all Falling away from each other in distance through the years' Great lines, Marge! You've touched me, too, with this one! Love it!! sp Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: 'it might have been.' -John Greenleaf Whittier |

"I never meant to make you cry or cause one tear to fall I never wanted to leave your side for so long you were my all" Wow! I'm almost lost for words. For me too this has brought back so many emotions! "The heart and soul have no illusion of boundries when friendship is the quest" ~ My Angel. |

Heartwarming to "feel" the tear of another, what a splendid way to capture such a bittersweet memory. Marge, this was beautiful. |

Marge, Somewhere we will meet again perhaps on a train of thought Should you shed a tear of remembrance rest assured it will be caught For every memory has a place in a heart that it calls home Your memory rests in mine You do not cry alone This is so sad, so beautiful. You are a master weaver of words. You have reached deep within heart and soul. You have brought me peace and tears. Thank you! |

Faith moves mountains for some and for me it was this time Though I never meant to make you cry this heartache is also mine I love this. I hate this. This feeling is all too true. This is a sad and beautiful poem. Keep breathing. Love is the law, love under will. |

This person is very good Marge...this piece kind of reminded me of M.Jackson's, "You are not alone"...anyways, this piece is very poignant, emotional, and beautifully written. Brilliant job! Nathan |

I can appreciate your thoughts and thank you for them. Nate, my friend~ Oh ... thank you for such a wonderful compliment. I'm blown completely away ! *Believe me, this lady appreciates sharing this piece with so many hearts. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
