You are not here, the click of the door saying farewell. Though you have departed, I still have much of you. The towel that you dried your sensual body with. The lipstick, the passionate pattern of your lips on tissue. So much more is still here...I will never feel alone. Your fragrance graces your pillow, I will smother it. The leftovers from last night...the bottle of champagne. The sound of your voice as you passionately said YESSS. And when those parts of you fade...I will not yet fret. For I have your love in my heart, growing still. I have those moments among the dunes, at the sea. The passion filled nights under a full moon, your sighs. All of this gives me life, lets my heart and soul breath. I cannot say enough of what you dearly mean to me. You have kindled my flames of desire, they burn hot. I feel alive, I feel warm and wonderful..I feel great joy... And when all of these are gone, when nothing is left.. I still have my wedding ring, where you put it long ago.. I will forever have you here with me.. [This message has been edited by Magnus (01-05-2002 04:47 PM).] |

 (smiles) Oh Barry, this is such a beautfully optimistic point of view of lost love, it can be so heartaching but I am so happy to feel the precious afterglow your heart feels in these words! (sigh) May you always cherish these lovely memories, sweet friend, you are sooooooo romantic! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Barry, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

When a true love cannot leave the heart and soul, it it can be remembered with words such as yours. Very tender and touching poetry. [This message has been edited by wolf (01-05-2002 05:40 PM).] |

Magnus did you really have to join the Crying List? I don't look good like this you know, I really don't. Absolutely wonderful writing, please write a happy one, pretty please My mouth was made for laughing truly it was. Or for chatting happily perhaps, but it wasn't made to turn down. I really do congratulate you on the beauty of this but, please make me smile. Hmmmm!   Love and warm stuff As always Mushy  To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace St John ch2 v1 |
