I Wonder I wonder, did you know, How much I needed you so? How feeling your touch late at night, Filled my heart with such delight? The warmth I felt when you were near, The love I felt when you were here. Filled my being with joy and peace, Gave my soul a sweet release. I wonder did you know, How much I needed you so? I never wanted to let you go, Although I did, you're gone...So? How it hurt, How hard it was, To watch you walk away from us. But having you here where you didn't belong, Would have been by far, much more wrong. I wonder Do you know, How much I Thought I needed you so? ~Lady Lightning~ < !signature--> The way to love anything is to realize it might be lost. author unknown [This message has been edited by Lady Lightning (edited 12-06-2000).] |

How it hurt, How hard it was, To watch you walk away from us. But having you here where you didn't belong, Would have been by far, much more wrong. ================== Welcome to Passions Lady Lightning(cool name) you've made a lovely poetic entrance with this poem of unselfish love . Its very nice to have you here with us and I look forward to more of your poetry. take care jm I looked into the sky for my anthem The words and music came through But words and music can never touch the beauty that I've seen Looking into you |

and another new poet wields her pen at Passions... straightforward and to the point an unpretentious delivery of real -- um... anti-passion...? |

I like the ending, how you chose to put that reverse, of "how I thought I needed you.." Very good. Shows how we can overcome, can understand times we've had to let go. With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free.. dragonpoe |

Rebel-Letting go was the easy part, the hard part was staying for ten years. Thank you very much for your kind welcome. SEA-Thank you and I promise that you will see more as I am being forced to write these days.LOL Sorry, but I am a little shy about my poetry but getting more comfortable with the friendly people here. dragonpoe-The ending is my way of finding a bit of closure. Thank you very much. The way to love anything is to realize it might be lost. author unknown |
