Sorrow, pain, anguish; these I feel now that you're gone. Your life, cut so short. Your joy stopped, so sudden. Death has robbed me of my inspiration. You were taken from me when I needed your support. Support for the lifelong dreams we had. Wishing there was something I could've done. There was so much we'd planned to do and see together. All our dreams, will never come true. Tis sad, this sudden loss of you. It leaves a hole in my heart that will never heal. A hole so big, nothing can fill this emptiness. Holding onto the memories of time spent with you. It eases my pain, but doesn't erase my sorrow. Trying to live without you, I hope that I'll survive. You meant so much to me. I wish I could've only let you know. I'll never forget how much you helped me. Helped me to see who I really am. See how much my gift for words was important. You'll always be in my heart. Someday, soon, we'll be reunited. Whenever I remember you, I see your smiling face. The jou we shared comes back to keep me warm. You gave me love, support, and understanding. Every time I hear our songs, I cry. You and I, we had something very special. We were so close, and now I've lost you. You opened me up to new ideas. You helped me see things as I never had before. Now tragedy has taken you away. I never got the chance to say goodbye. I never got to tell you how much I cared. I'll miss you, and always love you. So now I'll say this one final goodbye. Goodbye, my friend. Goodbye my love. Goodbye from me to you. May you rest in eternal peace. |

epoet - this is a beautiful tribute to someone who obviously made quite an impact on you. The saddness will ebb. All the wonderful things this person taught you and the memories you have will keep them alive in you. |

Man...reading this one right after the other one...what an extreme wave of emotion. Losing your inspiration...thats very touching, very sad, and almost completely unfair. I liked the way you made it clear that you would be reunited, telling your lost love not to worry, soon enough you'll be there. Again there was no set structure (I'm big on structure) but its not necessary here in this (or either) piece. I applaud your work, very difficult indeed. |

thank you for your comments. I'm not one for structure though bob, to me poetry just flows without needing structure. I tend to just write what I feel and let it go from there. Thanks for the comments and appreciation of my work. |

Wow, what a wonderful tribute to the special person. Lots of lessons in here for us all. I really liked to format, my only problem was one misspelled word (joy) that stopped the flow momentarily. Thanks for sharing.  |
