I watched you smiling
don't you see my pain?
It's in my eyes~
What my voice can't explain

I talked to you
but never got to say
If you'd ask
I wouldn't go away

You wished me love, luck,
and all the happiness of life
for I was to become
another man's wife

I watched you walk away
can't you hear my shout?
My lips didn't move~
It was my heart crying out.

oooh SEA i love this poem of quiet desperation...really well written and expressed...why cant we find the words...well we find them in our poetry though...thank goodness (smile)
take care, jm

Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
You never knew what I loved in you
I don't know what you loved in me
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be

Sea this is touching..sounds like an opportunity missed...hopefully new opportunities blessed you in your life. In this past year I have looked back with regret at a missed opportunity...one in which the chapter is now closed. James

James~ You got it, it was an opportunity missed. I looked back yesterday and thought about it. I can't change the past,and I'm ok with that. Things happen( or don't happen) for a reason. Yes, new opportunities have come in my life and I feel so lucky. Thanks for getting me.

JML~ glad you liked

Help me leave your love my friend
I cannot escape you i cant pretend
a million stars explode in my head
When your not near and in another mans bed

My heart aggrees with the sentiment i feel in your poem

Did you write the Book of Love
And do you have faith in God above
If the Bible tells you so
Do you believe in rock 'n roll
Can music save your mortal soul
And can you teach me how to dance real slow

Walter~ You blew me away. I wonder if that is how my best friend felt? He never said. I was too afraid to ask.(rejection-ugh)Thank you for this reply. You touched me.

Gaining strength there my friend, good to see!!
This was lovely and powerful..

May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

SEA...I can relate. Lost love is indeed a hard thing to bear. Unfortunately, once the opportunity is gone....it is gone forever. Truly a great poem!!!!

SEA. . . we can only take things as they come. . .you have captured this well. . . and you're right. . . things happen for a reason, we don't get to see them right away, but happen they do. . .we can only learn from them and move on. . .
