No Matter What People Say After caring for someone for so long It's hard to stand on my own and be strong But starting a relationship with someone new Is simply somthing I am not yet ready to do But why doesn't anyone seem to understand I miss the gentle touch of his hand Knowing he was there for me And thinking he would always be Someone I could trust and count on Even if I called him at the brake of dawn He loved me for who I am And that takes a lot for a man He always knew what I was feeling And even helped with the healing I miss the fun things we did Just being goofy and acting like a kid I can't erase all the memories I hold inside But yet I can't forget the tears that I've cried I miss him each and every day And I will always love him no matter what people say |

Well, if he walked away then he obviously didn't... "He loved me for who I am". But this piece leaves the "reason(s)" open... where did he go? Why? Was it by choice? Tragedy? I'm left wondering. Very nice job. -jaimie www.ladysixstring.com |

Princess, you're right. . . no one can tell you what to feel. . . and even though you let go. . . even though it's over, you still can't help but think about them. . . it's just natural. . . only you know your feelings. . . This is a wonderful poem. . . welcome!!! And please stay for a while!! ------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |

Princess What a wonderful piece for your opening post. And your right. Live your on life and never let what people say affect you in any negative way. Your poem shows that there was a strong bond and I'm like Ladysixstring; I'm left wondering. Great poem. Welcome to Passions. Garfield |

Poetry Princess... Always hold onto your memories, no matter what the people say......this is such a beautiful poem, and bittersweet, but written with your heart. Today is a gift.... That is why they call it 'the Present'! |

Beautiful thoughts...painful memories seem to be so strong but there does come a time when beautiful memories come forward and it is a tender time...I know what you mean..after losing a four year relationship I miss the companionship...James |

welp. I've been there, done it...and I can say that there's also the reverse side of the coin in that once you've been alone so long, you have a hard time letting go of YOU, and giving to someone else. So I don't know which is better. |

I want to say thank you to everyone who wrote back and got a chance to read one of my poems. I enjoy righting in my free time but this is the first that I will be posting in or even letting others read it. I am glad you all liked it and I am excited to read writing from all of you. Thanks again Randi POETRY PRINCESS "Love is a serious thing, and tears is all it will bring, but how do I bring it to an end, and how do I get my heart to mend? |
