Heartache ~~~~~~~~ Theres something on my chest the pain's excrusiating like a stab beneath my breast The days are long I sigh and moan at night I get no rest ~ I pace the floor two days or more no apparent place to go A weary weight oppresses me Just why I do not know ~ Money's not an issue so put that plan to rest I fear the need to trust someone and get this off my chest ~ My friends in kind are true and blue they want to ease my grief I doubt that their intentions tried could bring my heart relief ~ My love's not lost my family's fine I think this pain at best Is nothing but my home made wine I drank and can't digest ~~~ Rex }<{{{{o> |

Dost mine eyes decieve me, or has my most favored word passed thy pen? (challenge, that is -- LOL) I don't know what the challenge was (though I'd like to), but I like the poem much! --Kess Full fathom five thy father lies, Of his bones are coral made, Those are pearls that were his eyes; Nothing of him that doth fade But doth suffer a sea-change Into something rich and strange... --William Shakespeare, from The Tempest |
