I hear the distant rhythm
A heartbeat pulsing soft and low
Is it coming from within
Help me please for I don't know.

A saddened heart has no peace
A dark and endless pit
Of happiness gone forever
Just a pawn, a tool, a hit.

Only more grief coming
Through fog I can barely see
Rays of hope and sunshine
A respite from apathy.

You offered me the seagulls wing
So I might fly and soar
And just like a seagulls passing
My heart can soar no more.

Love is not so easy
Not a simple thing
For often it leads to pain
No end to suffering can you bring.

I want to fly again,
Free souled and with you,
But alas you are so far away
There is nothing I can do.


 Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely.

Climb upon my outstretched wings
Let me take you higher
From up here, you can surely see
The wonders laid before you

Your heart has the strength of many
For it carries us all each day
To know the love you truely seek
This pain you must endure

Free your soul and never again
Speak of saddened heart
Disperse the fog… Embrace the hope
Bask in morns sunshine

Come with me my friend
And let us fly this night

Tonight… I am not far away

The world is very small

And I am here… to help you soar

Isis:  i've identified with this piece a number of times in my life... but you will fly again... this poem touches the depths of longing and loss and as a result touches the heart of humanity itself... it's extremely good

sincerely,
jerome the boy with no brain

 A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
~Coleridge

FreeByrd thanks so much for the beautiful response poem *tear* you have touched my heart deeply.  I would fly any day with you my friend.  
And Jerome the boy with no brain, you write exceedingly well for someone with no brain.
Thanks for your comment too

ISIS:

Flying is a difficult thing to achieve after heartbreak (if that's what you're talking about) but I'm sure you can do it. You are an excellent poet!

isis,
i know your pain.  i have flown alone for along time.  and the one that i love is far away.  around 500 miles.  so for now i fly alone.  your peom hit home so much that it made me cry.  right now i am trying to get back home to her before valitines day.  i hope i can do it.  for she is my only happiness in this cold broken heart of mine.     all i want is to be in her loving arms again.  and feel a warmth in my heart that nothing can replace.  for now all i can do is stare at her picture and cry myself to sleep.  well it is hard for me to see threw these tears so i must say goodbye.  i loved the poem.  and thank you for all the kind response to me work.  see ya around the forum.

I am new here to DP but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that you seem to have a few aerial admirer’s here.

Like your work
