A cup of coffee grows cold.
Time passes both slowly and quickly
As I sit thinking of days old.

What will I miss when it all does end?
Will the pain and hurt be there still
When my heart does finally mend?

Can I still see the flowers bloom?
Will there still be the birds to sing?
In my heart, will there still be room?

People keep telling me the pain will pass.
They mean well and maybe speak the truth.
Life seems to go on but the sorrow will always last.


(this isnt my work it's someone elses work from my old school they were very talented with poetry)

Things like this take time to pass. But eventually it does. I really liked this piece.

Cold hands means a warm heart

Very good poem.  Is the person that wrote this the same age as you.  They seem to have a lot of understanding for someone that young.

The hardest thing to do is watch the one you love, love another.

No she was 17 and worked as a special needs helper in my class and we both loved poetry so we shared some with each other and she gave us a copy of that one
