where the wild flowers grow

Today
when darkness falls
as a shroud
of shadows
upon me..

I will walk
the lonely
road..
for
the night
is all I have.

I find it hard
to believe..
that here,
in my
childhood fear..
lies a promise
i made years
ago..

I kept your
rose..
I let it be,
and it may..

Black dove
soaring
with my signs..

I wept
for
what I'd lost..

was myself..

When the night is all you have
it can be a friend.

A touching write.  Thank you for sharing it.

A very lonely feeling poem. Made me feel sad. You have the uncanny ability to draw the reader into your world--or at least into the worlds you create poetically...

Lovin' hugs,

It touched my heart. I'm sorry.
Hugs to you,

-sigh- this was good. it literally took my breath away

Kaoru, sometimes the night is a friend sometimes it is a foe, keep writing.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

It's easy to pine; it's hard to move on. Loved this.
