I Read Your Words I read your words on a screen and I believed Thought my heartache would be relieved They touched on the very essence of me You supported me in loves stormy sea Your love was real I know that was true And it went because others love you too I waited for you to respond to this loves gift I wanted your spirit to soar, climb, to lift And although it did you still wanted more So take back your love and go and soar For I can remember and hold this dream And use the memories to fuel loves theme Your words were like an incantation a spell So professionally you rang my hearts bell My eyes only had to read there your name And my heart was on alert to play a game You'd capture me with a celestial phrase There I was darting around your loves' maze I'm giving you my thanks for a lesson taught For a least I had a taste of what I sought And heaven or paradise is a place I've seen The next time I'll say to heaven I've been And the lover who follows my giving heart Will find that from heaven he's not far apart Marsha Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

How dare he toy with your feelings. I do like how you put into words your hurt and how you healed from it. |

I am starting to discover to my dismay there are many men this game seems they like to play the hearts of all the women they collect with glee while we sigh believing words that trap a heart once free *sigh* my heart bleeds for you dear one. Much love and hugs to you from me. Love I leave with you my friend whether it be in your life or of yet the essense of your dreams. http://www.voy.com/7622/ http://www.powerpoems.com |

I am just relieved they weren't mine...lol... and winks to me Marsha... and it IS difficult...methinks sometimes the ladies should start a "dead poet's society"--poets are safer to love in the grave....but it's ALL very haunting, nonetheless. Love to you lady, watching you grow here..hugs. |

Loved it Marsha. Sometimes the game is played and the stakes are high. A broken heart is a risk we take. If a dream touches us, it exists to us as anything else that touches us. John |

Marsha, you played a game you could not win did no-one say "do not begin" you lost your heart and that's a shame how could you not know 'twas just a game the pain you're feeling is so deep but your heart will not always weep you'll go on, you have the power growing stronger every hour in your write you show your soul it won't be long till again you're whole until that day comes around just keeping writing to passions ground. Write on, be strong Keth Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |
