Apart ~First Knight~ My phone rang out today, and it was everyone but you. My stomach fell each time as I am feeling blue. My pager beeped today, and I wished it had been you. It was only the low battery, and beeped upon this cue. A lady looked at me today, with a smile upon her face. If only you would look at me, and touch me with your grace. Time passed so slow today, with each hour like a day. Alone I sit and wait for you, crying along the way. A pain felt in my chest today, a breaking of my heart. Nothing can fix the way I feel, as long as we're apart. There are two kinds of pedestrians...the quick and the dead. Drive it like you stole it. |

Sorry to read you're still blue first knight. Just remember she is only following her heart and if her heart wants to take her somewhere else that is her destiny. Its only good when two hearts that feel the same come together. Believe me...I've been thru this. Your poetry whether a happy theme or a sad theme is shining as usual. Take care. James |

This is a very touching poem first-knight but I'm sorry I have to agree with James. The two hearts have to be beating as one my friend and if they aren't then there's always trouble ![]() Keep all the windows of your mind open Anne Rooks |

David, my friend~ While this may be sad, I find your heart telling it like you feel it. Love often beats in the heart of only one waiting for the right heart to pick up the beat. When it comes again, and it will, you will know. 'My phone rang out today, and it was everyone but you.' I really like this. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Sigh... unrequited love. Been there, done that, don't envy you. Well written to wring out emotions and tears. |

This poem captured the pain of waiting for love to be returned and time does stand still when that is what we are waiting for doesn't it. This is magnificent. |

David...although this poem was very sad, I found it inspiring...as you will see from my post "Everything But You" It's hard to miss someone you care so much about, but I know the feeling well ![]() |

Not sure how to respond to this one, knowing what I know. Sometimes love just isn't enough and words are just that until they are stood behind. Well written piece David. ![]() |
