I bow my head and pray To love again some day When my heart is healed And the wounds are sealed No longer will I cry Or sit and wonder why Things turned out as they did Farewell to the past is bid The blood freely seeps Like the tears I weep Cleansing my heart Hoping for a new start The pain will subside Behind a wall I hide Safe from all harm Away from love's charm The candle will burn As time's pages turn Towards what will be Once I find me Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

A genuinely fine piece of writing, Jenn. Let the candle burn, I have some on reserve if it runs low. Find yourself, and you will find your happiness. Your emotions are really being penned well lately! I'm loving these... Trev. |

Sometimes we do have to pull ourselves away from everything to discover what is best for us before we can find true love. We get caught up in what we thought was real. Listen to me!! I should take my own advice!! ![]() Great poem!! sp |
