I met my muse one-day Her arms bandage from the marks she placed upon herself I could sense her soul was being tormented When I saw her on that day, I knew my life was changed forever My heart melted into a puddle I could not make head or tails of the world I wished to scoop up this damaged dove Only wishing to nurse her back to health After that meeting I lost her for a while Torment followed my like the darkening clouds Sleep would longer come and food tasted oh so bitter In time I began to cope with the missing piece of my heart Till one day that phone rang and my heart was brought to life once more We began to get closer; all I wished to do was protect her from the world In time I learned that a person could be stronger then I ever imagined Her strength was unbelievable Inside a beauty of epic proportions shined I fell into a state I now know as love Her strength and beauty brought to a level I could never of known She became my inspiration Lovers we soon became Every moment seemed like a fireworks display I cherished every second I had with her Though in time I began to see that the life I choose to lead would only bring her pain I could not bear to witness my angel in pain because of me So I did the only thing I could do I ended our relationship Making up some stupid things I told others it was another woman No one could no that it was because I could not bear to be another tragedy in her life I write this all now because I have always wished that she know That for eternity she will be my strength She will forever be my muse She will forever be my one true love My beautiful angel You will always be in my heart I thank you for the gift you gave me I wish nothing more for you to have a beautiful life Because a beauty such as you deserves All the beauty in the world Tomorrow comes for those who fear it. |

This cries the excruciating pain of hurting somebody for their own good. Well done. Sorry for your pain and hers. Yes, why are you leaving? - Owl |

Thank you, iliana. Sometimes someone has to leave just so they can come back again. I am leaving, because the things I write are not that of fiction. I leave so that someday they will be. Thank you, Susan Caldwell. Thank you, OwlSA. I wish this poem did not have to exist, but it does. Midnitesun I am sorry for leaving the shudders open. You are right, I will only be gone aslong as the world needs me. I will share my heart beat again, I am sure. Tomorrow comes for those who fear it. |

Thank You OwlSA. We poets are never truly gone, our words shall always stand strong. Thank you, LeeJ. I would ten to agree my heart is still breaking over the events. Thank you, Nightshade. Thank you, dgvarner. It is full of heart even if it is a damaged one. Thank you, Enchantress. I hope that does attract too many moths. Thank you Juju. I am glad that you did not. Thank you, Mysteria. I hope it does as well. Thank you, garysgirl. I am not all that great at running anymore, but I will try. Thank you, jackiej. Well it is just raw emotion on the page. I guess that is why. Tomorrow comes for those who fear it. |
