I remember days by the lakeshore Your eyes reflecting the restless waves Haunted was I like never before Much do I try to remember those days Only memories though, and little comfort Not your arms or their tight embrace And the further I get from it, The more lines fade from your face I am left grasping at the empty air And even that blows away On the cold wind now there When I think of those days My loss is written in tears suppressed And heard in every single song Even happiness can depress, Knowing you are forever gone |

CG, you've tugged the heartstrings once again. And dearest Ralph...it seems you and Jerry may have more than just good poetic style in common. You both write of love and feelings with deep passion. [This message has been edited by Midnitesun (06-25-2009 07:47 PM).] |

Aww! Thats kind of sad and bittersweet all at the same time. Losing someone even if not in death is a hard thing to deal with. I hope that if you have lost someone that you have been able to deal with it through writing this wonderful poem. ![]() ~Dreamer05~ |
