Why did you leave me
alone in this night?
so much left unanswered.
consumed by this fright.
what could I've done different?
to change what is now.
was I the blame of
this instance somehow?
My love everlasting
would have given my all
to know what had happened
to stop that last fall.
god must have a reason
he needed you there
leaving me lost, confused in dispair.

So sorry my darling
for leaving so fast
kept hearing his calling
no longer could pass
he's shown me the pathway
where my pain could now end
I'll always be with you
your side I'll defend
I'll be all those whispers
you hear in the night
watching you safely
easing your plight
to find all the answers
your searching to find
always beside you
easing your mind.

Listening to every heart

Welcome to Passions, Chillidriver...this poem has all of the aspects of an elderly couple, one having passed on before the other...reminds me of when my mother said that she and Dad had a pact - she would go first, because he was the stronger one...but it didn't work out that way...

a very poignant, moving poem.  Please, check your E-mail for a Special Greeting!

Karilea - if I whisper, will you listen?

A provocative double-monologue which is almost unavoidable, I imagine...  One tiny technicality:  perhaps use the contraction "you're" instead of "your" in "your searching to find"...?  Welcome to our supportive group.

"Why?"

I wish I knew, Rich. I really do.

You always did feel other people's sadness more intensely than your own.

If you need an to talk, lovie, you know where I am--k?

Good to see you here on the blue pages again.
