Today, today, today… Is but the first of many I open my eyes to darkness Coldness wraps its arms around me My Sun has gone away I face my day and try to be strong Nature brings me no joy, its color faded All is washed in grey The birds sing but they sound so faint Drowned out by the weeping of my heart The love I have lost, the trust I have destroyed My Angel that I have forsaken How can this be? This twisting of fate Time is now my enemy The past, which can’t be undone I was her knight Her hero so true And now a source of strife My stallion has grown weary My armor shines no longer The pain I feel…wisdom it becomes For mistakes are made to learn from Though she can never be mine The joy we’ve given each other is… It wraps my heart in an eternal hug Time and I are enemies no longer As I stroll down the lane of memories I cry not for the things I have lost But smile for the paradise I’ve experienced I shall cherish it forever Protected by the past, now a shield The dreams we shared become immortal A vibrant rainbow filled with delight It lights a path thru the darkest storms To the heavens it leads, where the sun…her smile…is still warm and bright |

Yes, wow, so sad but so uplifting like venus said. I liked this though, I liked how you set this up to start out sad yet be filled with hope towards the end. It was a very good job on your part. "Time and I are enemies no longer As I stroll down the lane of memories I cry not for the things I have lost But smile for the paradise I’ve experienced I shall cherish it forever"" One of my favorite stanzas in this poem, that is if I had to choose. There are so many good ones in this that it is very hard to decide one over the other. Yet, this one just made me smile! Btw, Welcome to piptalk! I hope you enjoy the site  @-->--- |

A vibrant entrance post. Made me think of the path less traveled, and how all journeys are predestined. The wilderness is pure joy. Hoping to welcome you back to Passions. TD |
