The sea and me

When the rain falls it lands tenderly upon the shore
When the waves roll in they reveal memories galore
The rain, seawater and the sand make me feel at peace inside
They help to wash my thoughts of you away with the tide
Thoughts of you and I alone on the beach one perfect night
Alone and in love holding each other tight
But now I'm all alone you've gone to a higher place
And in my heart I'm broken and our love I'll not replace
You were my one and only no other could there be
So here I am alone let the water set me free

This was very sad but well written.
It sounds as if you lost someone. If that is the case, I'm sending you a hug. You aren't alone in that area.


 Don't gain my affections and cover my eyes. In blindness I will only swing harder.

Sad indeed and I'm makes us weep
Everytime we read
It's always hard to figure out if a poem is writen based on fact's (most of them are) or fiction. If it was just happened or it's years back. So I try to look at the poem as a poem, but yes it's not easy to do. To leave emotions out of it, i mean. After all that's what poetry is all about. Well at least for me.
A very nice piece and yes a hug form me just in case


 The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools.
