Love Needn't Die I sit in silence as I think of you Scent of lit candles permeate the air Reaching to touch a memory or two I feel your shadow caressing me there Bringing on tears, raining colors of blue Scent of lit candles permeate the air Cloaked in my robe of desire for you Missing your gentle, your soft words, I cry Bringing on tears, raining colors of blue That day when I lost you, love needn't die Alone, my tomorrow, longing to feel Missing your gentle, your soft words, I cry A thief in the night, your breath, it did steal Each morning, I miss the smile of your eyes Alone, my tomorrow, longing to feel Each whisper, in darkness, your softened sighs I sit in silence, as I think of you Each morning, I miss the smile of your eyes Reaching to touch a memory or two Maureen/Moonchild *2k |

AW... so sad and heart-wrenching... Maureen, your tears are drenching yourself... if your don't know how to swim, learn now and be quick about it... swim in your thoughts..... keep the memories, but come out of the wretchedness of the tear-stained circle... GET A GRIP... okay, I have had my say... thanks for that... and for sharing this heart-felt piece... Take care, sudhir |

Deep, emotional and as painful to read as it must have been to write. Kethry gives MMoonchild a big ((HUG)). Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Sudhir...you make me smile..I wrote this a while back as a challenge..yes I either write very soft loving poetry or I write very deep tearful memories...neither of which is in the now, at any one particular time..is just my style I guess...and I guess I chose this today as I feel a little forlorn...and also wanted to post a terzanelle. thank you for your words...I do know how to swim sort of..but my husband was a lifeguard when we met..and I always assumed he would be there forever to keep me from drowning....
