I hear your footsteps Echoing through my mind Each one falling lightly Upon the warm concrete I stop dead in my tracks Because I feel you near As I look all around me For a sign of your presence Instead of seeing you I see nothing but space The air void of any essence Gaping back at me in wonder I feel my heart drop In bitter disappointment For I was sure you were near Once again within my grasp I must have been wrong Because I stand alone Searching endlessly in vain Missing you yet again All writing comes |

Those love shadows always seem to stay just out of reach, but close enough to remind you of their presence. A well written poem, Lone Wolf. I heard your soft silent cry in the night in this one. |

Wonderfully visual and heartfelt Lone Wolf ... you've captured a moment in time I've often felt myself. Just a glimmer, a remembrance ... yet nothing tangible when we turn. You've touched my heart with this lovely piece, thank you.  Best wishes, /Kit |

My heart goes out to you. There is nothing so lonely as yesterdays echoes. I pray new love fills your life soon silencing all the echoes of yesterday. Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

Oh my this just about sums up my last few months. I find it amazing that other poets seem to be in my same space so often. Even when it is not a current or personal situaton, which I hope for your sake this is not. Anyway, before I babble on some more, let me say that this poem is wonderful and really touched me Sandra |

Magnus: Thank you much. My pen seems to have a mind of its own these days! Enchantress: Thank you, Nancy! Kathleen: Aw, thanks. Yes, forever searching here. Midnitesun: They are ever elusive to us, my friend. Somehow I knew you'd hear my cry. Rosepetals25: I think it's a feeling many can identify with. Thanks. walker: Sorry you relate to this one. I hope it's better for you now. aries: Thank you for stopping by! Peaches: Aw, sorry to hear that. Thank you. Greeneyes: You are far from alone, my friend. Peace and hugs back to you. Kit: I am honored to have touched your heart with this one. You are very welcome. Just some thoughts I was having and thought I'd share. Startime: Very lonely, but necessary in order to move on. Thank you for your prayers. Sandra: They are just some thoughts of mine. Many of us seem to relate to each others situations and writing a lot lately I noticed. Makes you feel less alone I guess. Thanks very much. MyEnchanted_Melody: Thank you. All writing comes |

Jen, your words as always touch chords deep inside me...powerful write, full of melancholy, but nonetheless just as beautiful... "I feel my heart drop In bitter disappointment For I was sure you were near Once again within my grasp I must have been wrong Because I stand alone Searching endlessly in vain Missing you yet again" beautiful writing, my friend... Take care. Amy "I could kiss you in |
