~Forever December~ Tonight I felt you felt you move inside of me, felt your restlessness in my soul. As I sat beneath the slivered moon the November chill made me tremble, yet, the cold made me feel alive. My own warm tears felt estranged on my cheeks. Knees pulled up to my chest arms locked around them, embraced in the ache of missing you. Eyes to ebony skies searching the stars, there is that one that shines brighter with an emerald spark a jade glow, and I just know. I catch my breath and hold it in my lungs wanting to explode. Sometimes I want to scream, scream from a place so deep inside that even I've never been there alone. Sometimes I feel like I could bleed forever, bleed out my skin, from my eyes. Crying's no longer enough there aren't enough tears to release me. And I cant write enough poetry either, there's not enough rhyme to purge this. Besides, my words never do you justice, and tonight ... neither does the moon. I know where all this is coming from, as the calendar counts off the days. Screaming cant stop this times arrival, nor can tears, nor poetry. For the seasons have nearly come full circle, as the earth quietly and constantly keeps time. Each new day's offering of golden sunrises, of rose washed sunsets, and a phasing blue moon to remind. And the memories come flooding back, the way your prepared me to open my heart to let go of you, to let you fly. The promise to be the wind beneath your wings. And I remember the day I saw time ... actually witnessed its passage. That day in the square, the millennium clock counting off the seconds, the minutes, till the years end. I can still feel the way my knees went weak and my chest drew in tight, and I remember thinking if I held that breath forever ... I could make time stand still. But, angels and butterflies aren't held to mortal time. And just like I had to let go of that breath, I soon had to let go of you. So now ... November will again give way to December, and I'll see your shadow there. And I wonder does anyone else question why we feel the need to measure pain? Why do we mark our losses in the passage of time? Each passing day weighs out equal, one hour, one week, one month, one year, the memory is just as treasured and it's only those moments that matter. Should the stars all fall from the sky, should the moon forget to shine. Let the winds of change blow, let the tides wash away the sands of time. I wont ever let this go, you will never fade in me. And time will mark the moment the night you took flight. And each of us who lived in your light will engrave again it in our hearts. Still I know ... there will always be a moment etched in time, as if, like me ... destiny held it's breath and it will be forever December. Janet Marie for DeVante' ... always "And I can remember Forever december The center of dying, the heart of the pain The rose in the bottle, the thorns in the bottom The stars surround me, the cold astounds me" ~Tabitha's Secret~ ************************* ~Forever December~ Tabitha's Secret from the CD Dont Play with Matches I reach within my isolation I harbor it, I honor it You say you'd like to see me closer Of course you would, you have no choice And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me And I laugh at the people that I can't be all their lives Silly pictures Hey now now now, hey now hey baby Baby's getting older Hey now now now, hey now hey baby The tide is turning, turning us away You build the wall I'll build the fountain We'll wrestle it, we'll conquer it I think we'll live to see the mountain Of course we will we have no choice And I can remember Forever december The center of dying, the heart of the pain The rose in the bottle, the thorns in the bottom The stars surround me, the cold astounds me And it wont take long, we both knew this Well I wasn't quite prepared For my center of dying, the heart of your pain All my words get lost and I cant speak Got my head stripped down well I get weak And the words fall out like forever december And I cry cause the weather has gotten to me And I laugh at the people that I can't be all their lives Pretty pictures Hey now now now, hey now hey baby Baby's getting older, baby's getting older Hey now now now, hey now hey baby The tide is turning, turning us away ... < !signature--> "What the caterpillar calls the end ...

Janet Marie, Oh love, this just aches and bleeds pain. Pain so deep it'll take a long long time to ease. My thoughts for what it's worth are with you, at least you have the ability to write exactly what you are feeling. And a wonderful beautiful gift it is, such a power to write your whole heart. Such a power to make others feel your pain and make them empathise this is a gift of awesome ability. If I could wave a magic wand to banish all hurts and pain, I would, because although pain is vital, it teaches us lessons that we would otherwise ignore. I along with everyone else I suspect, prefer the lessons that love teaches us. I'm rarely serious, except when offering love and friendship, love as a fellow sister and friendship because. If you need me I'm only an E away. And I can always make time for friends, besides isn't that what delegation is for. (Actually it just means I do whatever later, but that's okay) Take care Mushy Marsha  Look to the light love, it will help, I promise it will. Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

Janet Marie- Oh my...how this screams with an undeniable ache... 'I catch my breath and hold it in my lungs wanting to explode. Sometimes I want to scream, scream from a place so deep inside that even I've never been there alone. Sometimes I feel like I could bleed forever, bleed out my skin, from my eyes. Crying's no longer enough there aren't enough tears to release me. And I cant write enough poetry either, there's not enough rhyme to purge this. Besides, my words never do you justice, and tonight ... neither does the moon. 'Should the stars all fall from the sky, should the moon can forget to shine.

And each of us who lived in your light will engrave again it in our hearts. Still I know ... there will always be a moment etched in time, as if like me destiny held it's breath and it will be forever December.' when you write about your DeVante', the words are spun in pure gold... and this one is no exception we are so fortunate that you are willing to share your love for him with all of us here...thank you.. this brought tears...my heart goes out to you, my friend...you're in my thoughts and prayers.. love and hugs to you, -vicky "...until you have read the verse on his heart, you have not truely met the poet." -vlraynes |

"Crying's no longer enough there aren't enough tears to release me." "and I remember thinking if I held that breath forever ... I could make time stand still." "And I wonder does anyone else question why we feel the need to measure pain? Why do we mark our losses in the passage of time?" "Still I know ... there will always be a moment etched in time, as if like me destiny held it's breath and it will be forever December." Oh my dear sweet Janet Marie ... I think you're gonna send me into tears here. What an incredibly beautiful outpouring of love, longing, remembrance and such sweet, tender love. This was superbly emotional writing JM ... absolutely superb. Beautiful hon! Best wishes, /Kit |

Oh Jan...I'm crying sweetie but not from the pain but for the beauty of the weave this butterly lays within your soul...ever line etched into the crystal of his memories and the love that he brings to your life...then, now and evermore. To see his light in your rhyme is one thing...but to see it here in free verse...that only confirms my view that when you write WITH him...you no longer exist, he no longer exsits but together you write as a new and beautiful Butterlfy...to many that won't make sense...but you will KNOW and that's what matters my sweet SS...that is what matters. Love you girlie...for this and for everything that you add to my life each and every day~ You cannot dance in the sun until you have cried in the rain~ |

Marsha ....thank you so very much for the wonderful compliments of my work and for the very sweet offer to talk, and I know these read very sad, but much of it is a reflection of how it all felt when he first passed on, I am ok..I promise...I truly do celebrate him and I am not lost in the loss of him, for I know he is in a better place and finally at peace. He was always ready and taught all of us who loved him how to love enough to let go.

Wow!! this one's a keeper VANtastic it's so deep and spiritual...the pensive reflections of your hurt that goes deeper than your very soul....the holding of your breath in the anticipation of stopping time to avoid the pain....the terrible let down of an oh so complicated and loving heart...a loyal heart that mixes truth with love and expects the same from the gifts lovers exchange...the melancoholy memories that shove the tears out of the very seat of emotion ...the friable imposter, reality, choking love out of a heart that knows that the intelligence of true love spares each lover the lies of convenience......the cold of December lingering in the bone marrow, plauging the warmth of thoughts with frozen despair..... hell girl!! if this is what you write like whan your muse isn't working then I want to be first in line to read your work when your muse is working.....absolute fabulous work!! This is the blues baby and you write'em as good as anyone....love ya right to death!! your old poet friend ethome. |

Aw, girl... That old saying "It's better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all" is true... especially when the person loved is so remarkable that they'll live forever in your heart and memories. But it's remarkable just how much excrutiating pain follows the loss... and how it sneaks up on you when you're not prepared to deal with another deluge of tears. But while the poetry can't purge the pain that pours from this poem, each poem you pen makes it abundantly clear that you wouldn't have missed a moment of the joy to be spared the pain. *S* |

Janet~ this touched my heart, more than I could possibly tell you........ "Should the stars all fall from the sky, should the moon forget to shine. Let the winds of change blow, let the tides wash away the sands of time. I wont ever let this go, you will never fade in me" The entire poem is amazing, but those lines touched my heart completely....... -SEA |

I know where all this is coming from, as the calendar counts off the days. Screaming cant stop this times arrival, nor can tears, nor poetry. For the seasons have nearly come full circle, as the earth quietly and constantly keeps time. Each new day's offering of golden sunrises, of rose washed sunsets, and a phasing blue moon to remind. And the memories come flooding back, the way your prepared me to open my heart to let go of you, to let you fly. The promise to be the wind beneath your wings. Jan, You have said so much in this piece with a tidalwave of emotion. This poem really hit home for me because my Dad passed away December 23. I to am feeling the "counting of the days". There are always two wonderous things that happen when our loved ones pass from Earth's realm to the another plain. 1. Heaven is now just that bit more beautiful because of them. 2. They are never really gone at all. We are just unable to see them in the form that we remember them by. One most definitely for my library. Another piece that shows DeVante's true impact on you while he walked among us, and the love he still gives you from his home in Heaven. It is a blessing to have wings for words, and passion in pen Marina Crossley |

My sweet friend, you know I love it when you write of butterflies, moths, and flames and especially happy to see you pen in free verse. No amount of bleeding will ever come close to the love that is felt when you really let it lose with your magical quill but rest assured that every ounce of your love and devotion are felt in every line and every word. Hugs to you sweetness!!! luv ya! |

Oh JM ~ So beautiful, yet so sad, so much heartfelt emotion flowing from your poet's pen...I lost my Dad on New Year's Eve, it will be 10 years ago this year, but....well, you know. It gives that day a whole new meaning, and each year, as I go out at midnight to ring the old bell, I know he's watching and smiling down on us...Take care sweet lady, my thoughts are with you.

"And I wonder does anyone else question why we feel the need to measure pain? Why do we mark our losses in the passage of time?" "you will never fade in me." "destiny held it's breath and it will be forever December." A powerful piece, JM, freeverse-gator... the above lines particularly engaged me and the ending was superb. Thanks for a great read and for the mirror of me that is you. |

Janet, I think Rex Alford said it so much better than I ever could so to quote an expert. "I would not ...even for a moment... relinquish the ache in my heart for the power to forget. Soft sighs. I loved this line. "embraced in the ache of missing you." Write on Kethry Why do yesterdays remain and todays pass by ...unnoticed? Rex E. Alford |

To have known such love and to have lost it - to have achieved such a peak and fallen to such a low - breaks my heart in ways I've no words for. I've known the high - know it now - - I've known lows - but none to match this - {{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}} my friend |

Martie & Sharon ...  thank you so much for remembering... ever since I met this special man..."butterfly magic" just happens--little moments in time that gift me with "traces left behind" and this year took its cue as promised...I was driving on the highway just before midnight and could see fireworks going off from the down town festivities..the whole skyline in front of me was lit up...then just as I exited the highway, in someones back yard I saw it... instead of the usual Christmas decorations of snowmen and Santa Claus...there was a huge Happy New Year sign on a hill and just below it was a large neon purple and gold butterfly/fairy holding a "peace on earth" sign. *smile* Happy Birthday Vante and thank you ... for everything you taught me ...I am so much better for your touch.  Happy New Year girlies. heart-hugs of the mothy kind. Thru the water...thru the rain To the soul of everything Throw my heart out on the stones And I'm almost gone D.Gray |
