Turn to stone All alone Lonely days will start me sinking There's no light Within my sight Dark are thoughts that I am thinking Your disguise Will paralyze This old heart and bring me sorrow I confess I've failed the test With no love for me tomorrow I see I waste my time with all the words I send My heart is broken now with no way for it to ever mend Live and learn While I burn It's my heart that I must swallow Suddenly It seems to me Deep in sadness I now wallow It's too late I've sealed my fate With a life of cruel surprises Come one day I'll find a way Journey on to new sunrises I thought some way some how I'd feel this way no more Those days are over now slammed upon me like a cell block door G.A. Webb Regret not that which you have done, Rather that which you haven't |

G.A., I really liked this. Your descriptive lines are excellent in this one! "It's my heart that I must swallow" and "Those days are over now slammed upon me like a cell block door"  Devotion The heart can think of no devotion Greater than being shore to the ocean- Holding the curve of one position, Counting an endless repetiton. -Robert Frost |

G.A. this poem is excellent,you have expressed the emotions you were feeling so well. as we write...we heal...and we then can "journey on to new sunrises" Take care Janet Marie Some things cannot be explained by verses that rhyme, They are not measured by the commitment of time. Some emotions run too deep to be described by words, Forgiveness and understanding- remain the most beautiful words ever heard. Janet Marie |

Great description of emotions as always. Good imagery too. Another Bravo Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely. ~Isis~ (Sovereign of the Spirit) |
