Never Again I’ll not return again, my friends, for I must take my leave And seek another place to live the things that I believe I shall not pass this way again where life has tightly spun its threads of joy around my heart in love that I had won I take with me the memories engraved in sorrow's eye Of golden days afforded to a dreamer such as I The sadness of the love I lost forever will abide in spirits intimate domain that holds a last good-bye I could not bear to see the another dawn without him near Yet every town I travel through will see a morning tear Though days will pass and time will heal I’ll miss the dearest friend that I have known; and I will never pass this way again Elziabeth santos |

Sorrow, like the night will always advance faster then we can ever catch it and await us in the dark hours. Stand and write. Enjoyed this poignant piece. |

Straight from the heart. There are some things we just can't do again.... God bless America, my home sweet home. |

Goodbyes are so very difficult... but sometimes when we lose our heart's dearest treasure, other goodbyes become our only option. This is a beautiful, tender write, Elizabeth. And I hope your path never necessitates taking leave of here... You are one of PIP's greatest treasures. *S* |

Very much a treasure, for even sorrow needs a place to stay, to show us where we were, and of our growths, of the friends we have garnered, the lives and loves touched... and please, this "is" a spectacular poem, but not in any way, shape or form, a note of what might pass.... correct? |

Goodbyes are necessary sometimes and have a place in our hearts, for only when they are in their place, is there room for hellos! Poignant piece from a tender heart. ~*~ Carpe' Diem ~*~ |

Truly lovely comments you have writtenabout this poem, and I thank you all deeply for your kind words Decaflame. this poem is not personal, except for the fact that I, and probably others too, don't like to return to places where I have suffered. Liz |
