Listening to every heart

the creation

I saw you looking
at the photo
I saw the tear
in your eye
taking into all
account
what was said
the reason why

if I could be fey
turn back the day
look into your eyes again
this is what I'd say

I saw you there
remembering
I felt the warmth
of your skin
you brought me out
of this shell
you save my life
from certain hell

if I could be fey
turn back the day
look into your eyes again
this is what I'd say

you started a part
of my life
one that I did not
think
I would ever breach
or even that I would
reach
the brink

if I could be fey
turn back again the day
look into your eyes just now
you would see me, O and how

someone you helped create
beneath it all, I still relate
am I a Ms. Frankenstein?
was I that, all the time?
is this the me
whom you wished to have
am I still the one
your heart to salve?

if I could be fey
turn back again the day
look into your soul and see
am I the one you want of me?

I saw you looking
at the photo
I saw the tear
in your eye
taking into all
account
what was said
the reason why

if I could but once be fey
turn back again this day
look into your soul then see
is this the who you want of me?

wow...this could have been written for me.
I know this feeling well, to be made to feel alive again, and when that goes, to feel the fear of being dead---again.  No answer here, just appreciation.  Thanks for sharing these thoughts.

Sunshine....this is excellent! Not only is the theme well-written but the way you handle the repetitive lines and phrases is very powerful and adds depth to the work.

Karilea~
Deep and emotionally moving.
Very well presented ...
and the repetition of thought gave it such dimension.

..feel your feelings here...maybe one reason why I chose for people to see the real me, the one with no photo's, my soul, myself. Grand job.  Marcy

Serenity, you are ever welcome...to know we are not alone gives us all hope...

'Deer...power...depth...wow...

Marge, emotion becomes a power that overtakes us all at one time or another...

Sy, you stand with excellent company...thank you...

Sharon, even if a flicker, all poems should contain that spark of hope...

Marcy, no other way...truly...

cathymarie...so glad you are here in the family...thank you for your kind comment...

Nan, with everyone's welcome attitude, honest critiques and inspiration, how could anyone NOT shine here?...

Sven, there should only be one answer to that, but unfortunately, it is not always so...

thank you all...
