I look in the mirror And what do I see A fading image A ghost of me A burning ember A falling star Left all alone With thoughts bizarre Contemplating The dreams I make The souls I touch The lives I take Now from this earth Which soon shall shatter My life will end But that won’t matter For life is finite This is true So with great urgency I sing to you The only words My heart can bring To you my love Alone I sing Hoping desperately You hear my cry And question not The reasons why All of my love Is meant for you Please tell me dear What I should do To win your heart And feel your touch These little things I miss so much I’ll work so hard Throughout the days To make you smile So many ways With all the quirky Things I do My heart is pure My words are true I will not fail you I’ll be there To hold you so With gentle care Although these words You’ll never see They echo the feelings Deep in me I look in the mirror And what do I see A fading image A ghost of me G. A. Webb 09/15/02 Regret not that which you have done, |

G.A.W., Thank you for posting here. I hope you'll give us more. I loved the slow ache, the subtle death and hope in this verse. Mike |
