The last petal on the rose falls, The pictures crooked on the walls, What happened to the love? Wasn't it enough? Looking at the front door, Walking down the stairwell, This home that used to be filled with love, Is now an empty shell. All the memories, Now a mirage of what used to be, Nothing left to remember, Not even a family. The dust on the shelves, Everyone by themselves, No way to make this work, Through the unfamiliar house I lurk. The forgotten love, The shattered dreams, The used to be happiness, That turned into screams. As I turn back, To bid the place once where I was happy goodbye, I start to cry, And wonder why..... Why was the love forgotten? |

Wonderfully written... I know this pain, and it cuts deep. I hope you feel better soon. Due to circumstances beyond your control, you are master of your fate and captain of your soul. |

You are the BOMB!!!!!! LOVE MOM!! A Love Forgotten The last petal on the rose falls, The picture now crooked on the walls, What happened to the love? Wasn't it enough? Looking at the front door, Walking down the stairwell, This home.... That used to be filled with love, Is now an empty shell. All the memories, Now a mirage of what used to be, Nothing left to remember, Not even a family. The dust on the shelves, Everyone by themselves, No way to make this work, So, through this unfamiliar house I lurk. The forgotten love, The shattered dreams, The used to be happiness, That turned into screams. As I turn back, To bid this place, where I once was happy, Now a final "goodbye"? I start to cry, And wonder why.....?? Why, was the love forgotten? I cannot believe there is a why? Why??? No answer to my cry..... I just sigh....... By the way.....did I mention how much I look forward to reading YOUR poetry?? If not.....THANK YOU....THANK YOU....THANK YOU!!!!!!

Scarlet Lady- You speak words of truth my dear friend! Yes indeed we have been through alot! Life hasn't been as easy as we have expected the last four years, but I have a feeling that you and I will pull through together and make it out of this rut we are stuck in! We just need time and patience to get things right! I LOVE YOU MOM. LadyPeach1 |
