“INTO THE DARKNESS” by Bill Charles ~~~~ Watched you go this morning, said goodbye for a long time… Held you close and whispered, you’re only once in a lifetime… It felt like I was in a dream, when one isn’t asleep or awake … Fingers parted and you were gone, at first signs of mornings break… I somehow knew when this night began, dawn’s light would become blackness… Another tear would slowly form within, and I would again drift, into the darkness… ~~~~ |

Held you close and whispered, you’re only once in a lifetime… Well done Bill...but tis a sad one. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

It can be difficult to use rhythm and rhyme like this without spoiling the poetry, the meaning behind it, and the message you want to put across. You do this well. Ems x-x-x |
