"Walking Alone" Walking alone in yesterday's dreams Finding tomorrow is not what it seems Living my life day after day Watching as you slowly walk away Recalling old memories of love, once true Knowing now, there's nothing left for me to do So, I go on dreaming of love evermore Yet, never forgetting all those who came before So many memories, so little time Keep them tucked in the back of my mind Holding onto the good times, supressing the bad If only I'd known back then all that I had! I'm somewhere in between what is real and just a dream - Lifehouse |

If only we knew what we had...only loss seems to make us appreciate it fully. Wonderful poem, I enjoyed reading. *Krista Knutson* |

Hi, Jeffrey.... Don't believe we've met. I'm garysgirl/Ethel. I must've have come here when you were gone. It sounds like you've been missed, so I'm glad to see you back, too. I enjoyed your poem and hope to read more of your poetry...... "Love makes the world go around" |

Jeff, This poem is very good. I'm a bit confused by it's words though. I hope this is not true to life for you right now. Dawn |
