It’s time to take back all that I gave to you Stars placed in your gaze belong in night skies Ocean breeze upheld your whispers as they flew Bequeathed now to moonlit walks not mid your lies ~*~ Whispers of your butterfly winged promises Should be free to float without worry or care Golden splash of moon dust placed upon your smile Should not be held onto for something so rare ~*~ Peace of sunrise that rested in your embrace Given now to the hope that within me flows Petal soft dew that rested upon your lips Bestowed back upon the budding morning rose ~*~ The angelic glow that I placed around love Removed now from your mortal skin Pain held in your absence fit once like a glove Forgotten.....As I let the healing begin ~*~ Powers and gifts I bestowed in true loves name Returned to where their forms are truly alive Last of all I take my heart from your cold hand I Once doubted... but now know...I will survive ~*~ |

BDC, WOW!!!!! I LOVE THIS!!!!! You are butterfly and I can hear you roar my friend. This is awesome poetry. You will survive . . . I just know it!!! Great writing. I hope all is well with you. Take care. Lone Wolf 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 |

Bdc-This is my kinda poem. I absolutely loved this and the pain within in it is so vivid, yet the knowledge that you are strong enough to survive and go on with your life is put forth with perfection. I would have to say that of all the ones of yours I have been blessed to read that this is by far my favorite and that was not a simple task on your part. Well done my friend. |

Awesome work Butterfly, your strength shows through in this one! Take care my friend! God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |

hi BDC ... great little piece of work here ... Ocean breeze upheld your whispers as they flew The angelic glow that I placed around love Removed now from your mortal skin (book material) |
