“Talking To The Stars” Last night I laid upon my car As I told a story to the stars I told them the story of my love From its first precious breaths Till its dying hours I told them how it started How I fell in love with you How those nights with you Changed me forevermore I told them how you made me feel How you breathed life Into my hollow corps And taught me how live again I told them how I love you With every ounce of life in me And how with every breath I take And every beat of my heart I fall more in love with you I told them of our happy times Of the nights I held you close How being with you Was more then heaven could ever offer I told them how it ended Through the sounds of someone else On the phone of one you hated Yet you are with him now I told them how I felt That you are the only one for me Though if I must I will live alone If you find your love within another I told them my story The story of my love With a smile on my face As tears streamed from my eyes I told them I loved you That I love you still And without you I feel lost So I ask the starts to guide me And you together again I told them that story Scene by scene All the love and joy Along with the sorrow So I told my story to the stars With tears streaming from my eyes And smile upon my lips As I spoke of my love for you It's too bad I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few people like that. |

I LOVE this poem. The way the whole poem about you talking to the stars is awesome, and then the whole storyline... about how you met, how you fell in love, how those night were so special, and then how it ended... that was fantastic. This is a library piece... it really hit home for me, and brought back familiar memories. Wowsers, awesome work. I enjoyed this. KUDOS to you. --Marie You think yourself a failure, but perhaps the biggest loss is winning... |

I liked this one. I thought it was really nicely done here. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

Thank you all for your replies It's too bad I'm not as wonderful a person as people say I am, because the world could use a few people like that. |
