 If I ever leave you in this world all by yourself I hope that you will read this poem I kept high on a shelf If I can never touch your face or hear your lovely voice I hope your path is always filled with happiness and joy I tried so hard to find the words to show you how I feel I tried to write this simple poem that somehow would reveal How much I always cared for you in everything you did I wish I told you more of all the feelings that I hid I’m sorry for the times I ever caused you to be stressed With all the love I felt from you I know that I was blessed I hope you know the problems that we had were all my own I’m sorry living with me made you sometimes feel alone I want for you to know that when you need me I’ll be there It doesn’t matter if you’re happy or if you are your scared Just know that I am holding you whenever you have fear And that I’ll always be there every time you cry a tear I wish I could have bottled up your laughter in a vial I’d pour it out into the wind and make the whole world smile I wish that I could find the color trapped within your eyes I’d toss it up into the air and paint a whole new sky I wish I would have captured your illuminating glow The effervescence of your smile could lift those feeling low I hope that you can find someone who makes your spirit free I hope that they take care of you And love you just like me Just think each time you stop to hold And smell a pretty rose That I may just be getting close So I can kiss your nose And when you see the clouds above release their saddened tears It’s just that I am missing you and wishing you were near I tried to find some special words to show you how I feel I tried to write this simple poem that somehow would reveal How truly I adore and worship everything you do If I could only find the words, I’d give them all to you  |

Your well chosen words flow so nicely in this very romantic piece. I like everything about it and lucky is the gal you wrote it to. Rae |

Oh my goodness. You did it again or should I say you did it before and I just get the joy of reading it now! I have to tell you something: My mom gets on this site and just reads. Says she can't write a lick of poetry, and has never really read poetry much until I joined this site and started writing recently. She sent me an email with the heading "Richy" - and just went on and on about your poems!  This is beautiful. I have something to ask... hmmm.... maybe it will wait! How mysterious is that??? |
