You've been dead for years in realms so unreal to you Try though I did, I simply couldn't reach you It's not at all fair to blame you although I will admit, I do There was just so much you couldn't have and you probably never knew Now all I have are memories mysteries and fantasies Never resolved, lies and tears endless fears ...and just fractured pieces -of you I wonder if you carried tiny fragments of me If they wore you down the way they have completely worn through me Reverberating damages... pockets (and heart) full of debris "Love" wrapped in bandages did you also bleed? Whatever may have happpened those slivers of the past won't allow me to be cold so it breaks my heart to know that of all things... ...you died alone... I wonder if you had the time the conscience or the capacity of mind to realize that time was slowing down and winding to an end did you cry out to god, your mother or your soon-vanished "friend"? I cradle my best memory of you -for comfort ...still cannot understand cannot believe she'll never see your face or hold your hand never hear her cry out "Daddy" who will walk her down the aisle? who will answer all her questions when she's no longer a child??? could you at least picture her in your mind did you perhaps whisper her name? did you tell her daddy loves her? did it anguish you the same to know what our little girl has lost? what you've done cannot be undone and now, look at the cost a blessing and a burden solely mine to bear although it's been this way all along cuz you were never there I can't help to blame you I Know... it isn't fair.

this is soooooo beautiful. Only a decent heart can sing out this kind of song. very touching. touch deeply. The first half, 'I' talked to "her". the last half 'I' is self-talking. you="I" . very typical for a sad heart. [This message has been edited by Drauntz (05-01-2007 10:05 PM).] |

Prisms reveal the layers and depth of the multi-dimensional facets of both the writer and his/her subject. This was truly a poignant multi-faceted write. Welcome to Passions. |
