My heart aches whenever I Think on all the times I cry In the dark I wonder why You had to leave, why did you die? Although my grief is nearly done Of friendship held through days of fun Please understand you were the one My moon and stars my light and sun In grief I cannot tell how I Felt your touch within my eye You were there - we touched the sky And held it all in life gone by Life gone by - a silly phrase When it holds our hope and praise But life is life and won't erase Death's dark hand to all life raze You are gone and I remain Walk this life on barren plain Sing my songs of sad refrain Yet your spirit still remains I wait here my friend and I Yearn to meet you in the sky My heart grieves with ancient try Soon it will cease and I shall die My heart aches - in physical Of life half empty not half full To overcome the mystical To wax and wane with earthy pull Faith has failed and grief is near I have overcome my fear My heart aches - I shed a tear I'll join you soon in after-here Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

This is good. Very expressive. But the ending is a little disturbing; I hope this is just poetic license. |

There's a comfort in knowing that some loves can never be conquered by death... but there's also much sadness - the heart of the one left missing never stops yearning. You've written this very well in this beautiful poem. |

I hope not too soon. I am selfish and want to enjoy more of your writing for a long time to come Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Oh Kethry, this so touched me. How sad, and I am so sorry. It is so good to still remember and love and be able to write it all down. Powerful and sad, floria Floria |

Hello Lynne We must have been on the same wavelength, as I have just posted one about grief. Your words were so sad yet beautiful and I could relate so very well to this. Beautifully done! Take care....Sue Suetang |
