A Star I've Yet To Hold Can you fathom how one misses, -a star they've yet to hold? Feel their touch, but not their kisses, -speak of dreams you've yet to mold? A thousand million miles away, -yet they're right before your eyes? Your tomorrow is their today, -yet your hearts still synchronize? Feel the aching beat of your heart, -contradict the peaceful calm? Dreaded silence, where you impart, -a joke to soothe and balm? In a world so cruel and careless, -when you find your soul of gold: You'll understand just how I miss, -my star that I've yet to hold. |

Ah Justbleu, I have. Read some of my other stuff to find my star, the read hers, because she is indeed, my inspiration. |

I don't know if I should laugh or cry or run around and scream my head off! Thankyou, Chris - I think I'll do all three. Hey, at least you're not alone. Beautiful, beautiful and on..and on. |

Christopher, Which poem (or woman) might you be reffering to? It seems I've missed it. ------------------ Work like you don't need the money, love like it's never going to hurt, dance like nobody's watching. |

Thank you all, words of praise from such fine poets as you really leaves me with a big head! (don't listen to severn, I don't have an ego problem... I swear!) Tara... read on, and you shall see! Dark Angel- I post my feelings here to share them, I am honored that you wish to share them with others! Ruth- I already hold her in my heart! K- I'm not the only one with multiple personalities I see!  |

I see much in this, Christopher. 'Tis beautifully written. I hope you truly have found your star...your inspiration. ------------------ Michael Anderson And so, being young and dipt in folly I fell in love with melancholy, But dreams - of those who dream as I, Aspiringly, are damned, and die: EAP |

Christopher, Nice poem. I can relate, too. Still working on that depressing one that you challenged to us all. Where's yours? Tyson |

This is lovely, Christopher...*sigh* I wish I could get all of you "Romancers" together at some huge, beautiful bed & breakfast, so all of you could meet your dreams come true! (I'll keep buying lottery tickets! ~*LOL*~) ------------------ The only man worth your tears will never make you cry... |
