I found a picture of you
It was all faded and torn
I felt a pang of nostalgia
Feeling sad and forlorn

I remember when we met
How our love felt brand new
You were the centre of my universe
How I'd do anything for you

You came into my life
And exposed my heart to love
I never once took you for granted
How we fit like hand in glove

My priorities were less important
As I gave to you my all
But my love was not enough
As you ignored my heart's call

You left without a note
You couldn't even say goodbye
Did I mean nothing to you?
Was your love just a lie?

Now my heart remains defiant
Love will come again one day
My own life became a priority
On the day you went away

* * * *

Just to let you know that this was
not written about a personal experience.

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

A very powerful write here Sue. I'm glad it wasn't written about a personal experience.

In truth, what defines us is our poetry.

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Sue, I'm so glad this wasn't based on a personal experience, sweet friend, my heart goes out to all those who are left lonely and behind like this as I have faith true love will find all their hearts! (sigh) This is beautiful, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

P.S: I just loved the gorgeous card you sent me of Cradle Lake, it is soooooo breathtaking!

Sue - though this isn't a personal experience you write powerfully for those who have experienced this - lots of empathy and determination here - great poem!!  Paul

Perhaps not personal for you, Sue...
but this will fit someone
like a hand in a glove...

Sue:  Very poignant write and glad to hear it was not something you personally experienced.
