I can see my life reflected in your eyes And I want to stop my breath So as to hold onto this moment In this way, even cheat death Lost in oceans of violet blue Drowned in depths that are infinite How I want to have that feeling But for now I will only dream of it The reflection is so intense More than I, brave enough to bear For the ache is so daunting Reaching ever for something not there And I know that after you’re gone Empty will be more than the sky is wide Even as I would breathe again The soul that is all of me will have died |

"And I know that after you’re gone Empty will be more than the sky is wide" ~ You have the ability to make your reader feel what you are feeling. You have such a loving, tender heart and have the ability to express it so well ~ so convincingly. Sending a warm hug your way, Linda |

If ever I need to define love, I won't go to Webster's... instead, I'll read the first and last verse of this poem again. *S* This is pure heart expression... and the heart it reflects is so beautiful!! |
