Sitting alone on the beach Your heart no longer within reach I am here watching the rising of the sun Its beauty is second to none The sand is cool on my skin My mind starts to spin I watch the sun reflect on the bay It shimmers and gleams each and every way The cool breeze sends ripples over the lake It chills me and I start to shake Before me is your image now Are you a mirage or here somehow I see you walk along the water's edge To love you always was my pledge This has all been a dream Not as real as it seems I am here on the shore Wishing there could have been more Looking all around My heart begins to pound I really thought you'd come back My world wouldn't be so black I miss you being there today Maybe we could find another way ----------------------------------------------------- Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W.

Teresa, Thank you. Love the beach, but guess it is kind of bittersweet. Lots of memories there. You are welcome for sharing. Maybe it can be different.... Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W. Smith |

I can feel this one tearing deep inside. This poem takes me there. Very special and very sad. I relate to your name. Lone Wolf. My e-mail name is mountain recluse. Lone Wolf has a special mournful feel to it. Excellent name, if a person is feeling that way. |

Jeffrey, Thanks....happy to oblige. Rosemary, Thank you and it does tear deep. I feel sad about the whole thing. As for my name, it is a perfect fit I think. I can relate to yours too. Yes, it is how I feel. Friends are friend forever if the Lord's the Lord of them and a friend will not say never cause the welcome will not end. --Michael W. Smith |

Lone Wolf - Beautiful, my friend! Investing your heart and soul in a relationship, and then having it end, can make you feel emotionally bankrupt. I'm glad that you are able to get your feelings out in your poetry. I hope it helps you as much as it helps me to do that!
