Without You Without you to remind me to walk on I might not know how to sing hope’s song But if I look within I can recall the touch Of a love that spread its warmth of such Each day I’m learning to accept the fate I know love lives even past death’s gate Sobbing won’t hold time still for me So I’ll try to smile as I face time’s adversity Without your touch I wouldn’t have this A love that covered my soul in endless bliss I’ll never forget you made my eyes shine Or that we shared a golden moment in time How many souls can say they did so? That their hearts and souls in unison flow Time is the only regret I have about you The minutes together were much too few Without your voice will I still find my way? Will I find the path I should take every day? Are the choices I’ll make right or wrong? Will I still hear the music of love’s own song? I know I’ll go on and all will be well But the pain of this loss is too hard to tell Without you to take my hand it will be tough And I wonder my love if I’m strong enough Without you I fear the colours will fade My heart, my soul will live in sorrow’s shade Marsha Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Oh Marsha dear heart, this is so sad. I hope you are alright. Your words are very touching. I know that we are all stronger than we realize, and that the sun will rise again to-morrow. Be well. Chris "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |

Marsha... I don't really know what to say about this absolutely lovely but very sad piece... But this much, I do know... Love does survive death and once you have loved someone and he has loved you... you will always have that love. ~ hugs and tears Lyra |

I’ll never forget you made my eyes shine Or that we shared a golden moment in time How many souls can say they did so? That their hearts and souls in unison flow Time is the only regret I have about you The minutes together were much too few I'm sure you know what these particular lines mean to me... and what a rare gift it is when we can say this about a relationship. *S* It's hard to know whether to comment on the beauty of your poem or the pain that propels the words forth... both beauty and pain are abundantly evident. *S* |
