I must leave my home again
until the light dawns
until a new walter arises
as the the pheonix draws

I must travel again
away from poetry
back to real things
to find my words again

For now i am spent
my love is gone
my life tears in the rain
all carried away

Perhaps i can visit
after a firey rebirth
perhaps new walter
he will return

Perhaps he will fade
as my passion dies
perhaps all this ends
as my eyes dim

Until next time my friends

Take a good look at my face
Well, don't my smile look out of  place
look a little closer its easy to trace
The tracks of my tears

if you must go..then indeed may the wind always be at your back... I understand being depleted..but we will keep the lights on for you and when you are ready...we will be here.

good luck...

Paul...no matter where your roads take you...you carry poetry with you...its part of who you are...and I am always grateful that I got to read your work.
Take care of you my friend from the dark... and remember dear poet sir...we always leave a light on and save your seat. Where ever you may travel, know you are never alone..you take a piece of us each of us that you have touched with you.
heart-hugs to ya Paul.

If made to choose between the power of writing a poem
or the ecstasy of a poem unwritten I would choose ecstasy
In the end it is better poetry

Walter--I went into the archives and read some of your poetry.  I'm sorry that I hadn't before as you write quite beautifully.  I hope you will be back!

you'll always be a poet dear sir.
we'll be eagerly expecting your return here
I think most of us can too easily, and with some pain, understand.

God's Blessings to you as you journey,
Always, Alyssa

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Paul, we all understand the difficult times you are going through, but I urge ou while you are gone to write your heart out, as it only hurts more to just turn around from everything and sacrifice dependence! (sad sigh) Come back with some of your rejuvenating sentiments, we are all here for you!



Love,
