Your vacant stare < !signature-->The painful silence Echoes through this empty void Love so beautiful You so vibrant All of it now destroyed You look at me With unseeing eyes How can you miss my pain Not one tear From eyes unblinking I cry and I cry in vain I took for granted You would always be Now I find myself alone So many things I should have said If only I could have known I profess too late My need for you No joy on your slackened face I'm left with naught But my misery In this cold dark silent place One more time I kiss your lips Unmoving unfeeling you lie I take your hand And lose my heart As I wish you one final goodbye... ~~~ In loving memory of Kari Aug 1965 - Mar 2000 I will always remember ~~~ Steven Seaman With arms wide open Now everything has changed I'll show you love I'll show you everything With arms wide open ~CREED [This message has been edited by sea_of_okc (edited 06-24-2000).] |

I am really moved by this poem.. almost weeped, but suppressed. people often take for granted what they possess, and only feel the grief when they lose them.. Though I haven't any experience, I know if it ever happens to me, I would feel exactly like you once did.. it's the saddest poem i have found, true feeling.. a vote is well deserved. - James The beauty of nature is displayed, not through itself, but through the creatures dwelling within its bosom. |
