Array ( [sid] => 117224 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => (no title) [time] => 2006-03-28 15:37:00 [hometext] => I would love to hear any comments from my fellow poets. [bodytext] => I’m standing in the alley of life,
It’s dark and I am alone.
I can’t see where I am going,
But only where I have been.
Then,
Out of nowhere,
A great flood consumes me,
And then you appear.
To save me from the flood.
I ask who you are,
And receive no answer.
Just silence,
But you embrace me,
And I feel nothing but calm
And the flood goes away.
The streets dry,
And you start to leave.
I ask who you are,
And you stop.
But say nothing.
I ask if you are an angel,
Sent to rescue me from my faults,
And you say nothing.
You embrace me again,
And as I bathe in the warmth
And calmness of your embrace,
You disappear,
And I am back in the alley.
But something is different,
I can see where I have been,
But I can now see where I am to go.
She showed me the way.
But I am still alone,
And always will be.
What good is it to know the way,
but travel the path alone?
What good is it to continue alone? [comments] => 2 [counter] => 190 [topic] => 32 [informant] => Garret [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

beautiful verse, honest and heartfelt. I understand this well. SOmetimes when we think we are alone, we are being watched over by someone we dont see and sometimes cannot feel. SOmetimes we need to walk the path alone, to enjoy the sweetness of real company.

Hugs
Michelle
