Array ( [sid] => 133543 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => abandonment [time] => 2007-04-15 15:57:12 [hometext] => [bodytext] => A room, ponder it's four walls that make it complete
each wall supports the ceiling and sits on a floor
A family, a support, a unit.
I have four pillars in life, two are gone, lost in the clouds
Missing in a childhood fantasy of a faith reward
two are living still, they haunt my daily thoughts, a welcomed ghost
When the two were lost, the house was abandoned, eventually condemned
now there sits a memory of a vessel that once held happiness
lost to time, the promise of reunion fresh on my heart
abandonment though seems to be the case,
not by the two but by the very God we believed in
where did he go
was he in the midst of the crumbling unit
did he get trapped in the ruins
or maybe he lost his voice because even the great I Am
has left me muted
He steals our friends, our loved ones, our stability
he robs our sanity after providing us a heart to feel it's absence
Life is death and abandonment is life [comments] => 1 [counter] => 325 [topic] => 39 [informant] => outdoorsman [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => Grief )

abandonment

A room, ponder it's four walls that make it complete
each wall supports the ceiling and sits on a floor
A family, a support, a unit.
I have four pillars in life, two are gone, lost in the clouds
Missing in a childhood fantasy of a faith reward
two are living still, they haunt my daily thoughts, a welcomed ghost
When the two were lost, the house was abandoned, eventually condemned
now there sits a memory of a vessel that once held happiness
lost to time, the promise of reunion fresh on my heart
abandonment though seems to be the case,
not by the two but by the very God we believed in
where did he go
was he in the midst of the crumbling unit
did he get trapped in the ruins
or maybe he lost his voice because even the great I Am
has left me muted
He steals our friends, our loved ones, our stability
he robs our sanity after providing us a heart to feel it's absence
Life is death and abandonment is life

that's a really sick line

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
