When you walked away from me and left me here all alone you took with you, my true love the most precious thing I own. You took away my heart and I could never love again. You’re not just my only love, you are my dearest friend. I didn’t mean to hurt you and I never meant to say our love wasn’t worth the price you had wanted me to pay. You know my heart is breaking and I need you here with me. I’ll take what you have to offer and I’ll be what you want me to be. I wish you every happiness and may you always have the best of the good things in life. a brand |

Dee~ Oh, sweetie ... I hope that lovely smile becomes bright again~ Don't just settle for what he has to offer ... unless it's all of his love, as committed as yours~  Sending GREAT BIG HUGS~ Love ya'  ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

NO, you always be YOURSELF and don't let any man make you something that you are not. A wonderful poem, Dee, and I'm so glad to see you posting again. Now WRITE to me! I miss you dearly.Michael Michael Auguste~ |

Dee, I like the poem, but agree with Auguste...You must always be yourself or you will resent what someone else has made you. The key to a long term relationship is two people that love themselves and the other person the way they are. A key only fits the lock it is made for. It is always best to find the lock and key that match rather than trying to modify the key to fit the lock. Death comes not when we cease to breathe, but when we cease to dream. |

This is a very nice poem, my only suggestion is regarding the physical structure .....I'm no expert at all, but it seems to me that visual breaks help the reader know how the poem should read. Just my humble thoughts. No one ever listened themselves into trouble. [This message has been edited by The Lonely Stranger (edited 09-11-2001).] |

It seems you made a wise decision in this verse. But in heartache you have gone back on it. Let him see you for what you are worth, Priceless! A very lovely rendered piece. Thank you for sharing! Sincerely, Regina |
