Would have showered you with rose petals For the rest of time, Just to let you know That you were on my mind. Would have given you my heart Each and every beat, Just to feel your passion And your body's heat. Would have cried you an ocean Of infinite tears, To let you know losing you Was my biggest fear. Would have given you my life So you could go on, But I guess that notion Is dead and gone. For the rose petals that shower you Are from a flower who's dying, And a man's soul Which inside is loudly crying. The heart you were then given Now beats no more, A bitter chill sets in my soul From beyond this closed door. The ocean that I cry As of now is in vain, Tears of my solitude My sadness and my pain. My life indeed I gave you And look, you went on, But don't look back again For next time, I'll be gone. Jeremy T.

Beautiful and sad sentiments. Alas it is better to have loved and lost than to never loved at all. Somewhere, sometime you will find one who will cherish the love you have to give. |

Jeremy, wow, what a poem! I'm sorry it took me a bit to come read it, but I'm very glad I did!! There will come someone in your life that will be able to understand the love which you are so very capable of giving, and she will return it 3 fold dear! Just keep your hope up, and keep writing wonderful poetry! hugs and love, Cyndey "All that we see or seem, Is but a dream within a dream" Edgar Allan Poe |

This was outstanding, the flow was perfect. A great piece showing that sometimes no matter what we do...when it's not right....there's nothing we could ever do that would be "enough". |
