Behind that color I've grown fond of
I saw new feelings yesterday
And mixed in with bluish green
Was a rocky shade of grey
A stony cold refusal
Telling me to hope no more
It dropped my stomach quite outside me
Eight feet back and on the floor
It has left my dreams so empty
Filled me up with hollow fear
Stuck between the space that you now need
And the way I need you near
But for that stony grey confusuion
Your two eyes still look the same
It's deceiving 'cause you're different
And causing me to feel such pain
And I could be wrong on this
But I thought I glimpsed it there
A blank and frigid white
To match the fear that I, too, wear [comments] => 6 [counter] => 266 [topic] => 43 [informant] => liquidsunshine [notes] => Edited for Spelling as Requested by Moderator_15 [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 20 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Great poem. You have a flare for words and a story telling ability that captures the imagination.

I am so sorry sweetheart, that you are having this pain. It is hard and there will be tears and doubts and fears, but life will go on. Maybe it is fixable, maybe not. Just know that eventually the pain will lessen and you will be able to smile again and love again. Feel the pain and when you can let it go. All you can do then is start taking one step at a time,one in front of the other till you find you are where you need to be. You wrote this beautifully, albeit sad. Hugs, Rita

(*sigh* I'm here thinking that I just don't spend enough time on your page...... I think, this time, emy beckoned me here, perhaps. *wink*)

You had my attention from the first line of this piece. A "rocky shade of grey" swept me away (it is precisely that isn't it? not just... not just any grey... but that 'rocky' shade... *sigh*).

I speak in colors sometimes myself. And this... this... leaves me aching. It's beautifully done... I echo every fabulous thing Jarred said!
