Thoughts and dreams mix into a
a beautiful pallet to form...
The woman I love...
It seems like Fate finally allowed
me some peace....Or so I thought.
The day came...
The day I had to leave...
I literally watched my love walk
out of my life for only God knows
how long....
I returned home....
Only to wish nothing but to stay with her...

Dreams are the the gateways to making the impossible possible
So many words, for the broken heart...

Oh i feel for you..this poem is riddled with paradox. You leave but she walks but you wish nothing but to stay with her..

I sincerely hope for a reunion, but if it's fate, then no doubt there will be one.

What a wonderful description of the woman you love.

someone just asked me
what constitutes "high
art" one of my responses,
a poem written by a man
in love, if you aren't (in love)
you made this reader believe
you are....and that's good

enjoyed

sometimes, I wish that I could have just one side of this blade. . . most of the time though, the painful side seems to always be the sharpest. . .

well done, my friend. . .
