I hear voices...in the night...
none of them...belong to you...
Tell my heart...it isn't right...
to crumble softly...break in two.

Sing to me...a song so true...
of lovely things...of me & you...
Wipe away...my tears that fall...
help me stand...so brave & tall.

Stars that shine...so far away...
help me make...it thru the day...
Just like your kiss...upon my soul...
magically... you make me whole.

Without you here...I'm incomplete...
A ship asail...without a fleet...
A raging storm...without a sea...
A soul in love...so mode it be.

I send this back from page 40-something only because it reminds me of someone in this forum...someone I've grown very fond of...his softer side, anyway. (grin) Thank you.

Ah, come on guys! I'll PAY someone to comment on this one!?? Any takes? At least tell me that it's a sorry piece of attempt ! I used to really like this one - although I know it's not one of my best.

Femme,
You convey your feelings to the reader well here which to me is the true test of any poem. I truly share your sentiment.
