Kiss my lips hold my hand Here with broken heart I stand Your sweet warm scented gentle touch Oh to me it means so much Your grace filled presence fills my eye As I stand here and wonder why? Why these things just had to be These thoughts are now destroying me No more to lie in your sweet arms No more to kiss your rounded charms No more to feel the touch of you Tell me now what can I do? My tears are falling waterfalls Say your sorry conscience calls My life is walking down the road I’m in your debt I’ve always owed My clouding eyes no longer see My soul is now deserting me My sudden stupid ill thought word Has pierced me now with sudden sword The sun is crying overhead The moon is weeping the stars are dead Heavens falling from the sky I stand and watch the pavements cry Words are scrambling in my chest But one small word it will not rest I stand suspended no more real I cannot tell these thoughts I feel The cage is closing round my head I really know what’s to be said My lips are running after me In one last burning cry……sorry Jon Mewett [This message has been edited by Jon Mewett (edited 05-02-2000).] |

What words can desribe the feelings inside When all the hopes and dreams have expired A little thought, my writer's block is so diceiving. A beautiful poem with an inspirational lesson, thank you for sharing these thoughts with us all here @ the Pub. Life defines no more than what it is you ask for. April 20, 2000 Alicia A. Renzelman |

"to kiss your rounded charms" mmmmm Jon. You got me again. Great poem, Freud would have a reason why those words stood out for me May your roof never fall in and those beneath it never fall out. Irish proverb. |

Jon you are an awesome writer. As I've said before, you have a way of making the reader "feel". Amazing how one word can make or break a relationship, which you've so poignantly pointed out. Good job. |

A beautiful poem, Jon. It describes the feelings felt when you say something you didn't mean... |
