The clouds moved in so quickly
And the wind became so cold
I walk this beach alone
There are no arms for me to hold

The day is dark and ominous
And the clouds are filled with rain
My tears are well disguised
Hiding my sorrow and my pain

There were once two sets of footprints
And they belonged to me and you
When you lived inside my heart
My skies were always blue

But now my heart is bleeding
Your love was taken with the tide
My feelings became superfluous
As you cast my love aside

Heavy rain now pounds the sand
As the waves lash the shore
Into my loneliness I'll retreat
Wondering what life holds in store

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

(big hugggsssss) Oh Sue, I hope these thoughts are fictional to you, I know this deserted feeling so well because when I was in California I was on the beach and I sighed imagining if I had my Joanna with me how much more magical it could be! (kiss on cheek) This is beautiful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Hi Sue - this is written so beautifully and I can almost feel the motion of the ocean.

I hope this is a fictitious write.

Sue: Very expressive poem and of course has a forlorn feel, because of the subject matter. Well done!
