I concentrated on her
The blue belt that she wore
My thoughts were all about her
Of what she was before
With a look she sought;
She grabbed then caught
Me, running for the door

I sat myself inside her
White wisps that floated by
I placed my hands beside her
And felt she was to cry
With a sigh so pained;
She shook then rained
Her teardrops from the sky

I remove myself now from her
My soul is falling through
The winds that whip about her
Are pulling me toward you
With eyes deceiving;
She wept thus leaving
Me, to find what I must do

Well, you found us! Welcome, Bob!

This poem is lovely... some really fine lines in here... I especially liked

"I sat myself inside her" and
"She shook then rained/ Her teardrops from the sky"...

well spoken, imaginative... creative!

Glad you stopped by! Hang around for a while, k?

Wonderful verse. I liked the way in which it was worded, so ingenuitive yet simple. Keep up the great work.
