[bodytext] => She looked at me with tempered tears And proffered me her pain And through the stench of alcohol Her words were clear and plain She said, "I've been a wife, been a mother, and a friend Never know which way I'm going Or exactly where I've been Many years of humble service Have bestowed on me a price And with my heart I've paid my dues The required sacrifice And now at this stage of my life I'm left alone to dread What remains in store for me What paths may lie ahead I fear this isolation, that is enveloping me And through the bottle I have found a way to be set free I pray you never compromise By living life for others That you allow your self-respect To not be tried or smothered Be wise when caring for your one and onlys every day Do not neglect to love what lies within you along the way" Emotion trickled down my cheek Her words cut to the bone I vowed that day to never be A woman turned to stone Copyright: Tammy Hendershot 2004 [comments] => 3 [counter] => 187 [topic] => 21 [informant] => tamilyn [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

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. ©
