Sorrowful neglect of He- Whom the stars destined me in love, Blinding pain- In such truth- Wherein harshness shall dwell… Of fingertips- Yours, upon my skin, Shall I ring of defeat beneath your eyes? Great binder of my soul- I retch in pain, For I’ve given you yours, tenfold… When naught else is shared, my dearest of loves- I swallow your tears with mine own bleeding heart… Shower not, your angelic graces upon my feet- For I cannot bear your symbol- destiny be damned… Suspended in air, but moments before, I shamefully fall from my graces- That I should love you… If only from a far. Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

HEY GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!! where you been... so glad your back... missed your cool poetry "When naught else is shared, my dearest of loves- I swallow your tears with mine own bleeding heart… Shower not, your angelic graces upon my feet- For I cannot bear your symbol- destiny be damned… Suspended in air, but moments before, I shamefully fall from my graces- That I should love you… If only from a far." OH YES!! missed this for sure.. you alway write with that edge... this is perfect to reflect you in the book later-d-gator jm There are places inside our souls - that have never been touched. There are places inside our hearts - that need to be loved this much. ~jm~ |

This one reads like a classic. The message is timeless. You've got my vote! It matters not how strait the gate; How charged with punishments the scroll; I am the master of my fate: I am the captain of my soul. --W.E. Henley |

That I should love you… If only from a far. And I cannot see "Why not" An beautiful poem Lady "D" So much passion in such a gentle heart The ability to describe life with words is similar to painting a picture; both can be powerful tools. |
