A water puddle in my heart

There's a water puddle,
in my heart,
that's where my sorrows drown.
My pain,
I swallow,
spoon by spoon,
but this I do on quiet moons.
My days are filled,
with masks of joy,
some I disguise,
others I don't.
I lost my happiness,
back in the days when you were here,
and I was with you.
Now, I'm still here,
but you're long gone.
I must live with that,
and that alone.
I have no virtues that I can show,
you took it all,
when you took my love.
I feed my pain,
with your memories.
I dream of you,
and in my dream you still love me.
Sadly I feel you,
but I can't be with you.
If there is some hope,
for this love,
don't hesitate to call.
I'll be waiting here,
with all my love.

A quarter of a century must pass, for the writer to understand what and why he writes.

walker,

Heartbreaking write my friend. I hope the writing heals you. It'll be ok.

Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats

This touches me deeply. Quiet and honest.

After years of searching, I have found I am nothing more, nothing less...I am in truth Just A Woman after all.
