Array ( [sid] => 31431 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => our final words [time] => 2004-01-11 23:55:16 [hometext] => [bodytext] => in the rain we stood
no words left to say
communicate with eyes
things better left unsaid

and you tried
you tried so hard
to make your eyes look sad
but i could see the happiness
i could feel your relief

the best thing that could have happened for you

you tried to touch me
to put your hand on my cheek
but naturally you couldn't
we both laughed awkwardly
and just stood there

i broke the silence
whispering into your mind,
"it's ok to be happy
it's ok to move on
i understand completely"

you feigned a look of shock
then blushed when i didn't buy it
your eyes found the ground
i would have touched your chin
lifted your shining face
if i could

i whispered again,
"i want to hug you so badly
just touch you once more"
in your mind, my voice was shaking
our eyes met again
and i saw a tear
a real tear
slowly descend your cheek

goddamn you don't know how bad
i wanted to wipe that tear away

so hard
so hard to let you go
but....
"it's time" i said softly
"it's time for you to move on
and it's time for me to go
be happy
and remember that i love you
no matter what you do

i love you"

if my heart had still mattered
it would have broken
when the urge to kiss you one last time arose
and all i could do was look at you
memorize your face
your body
the memory of your love

"go" i said

you kissed your fingertips
and clumsily placed them
where my lips should have been
where my lips would have been
if not for.....

then you turned away from me
and left me to stand alone
by the fresh soil of my grave

and you
you walked away
walked away to better things

and i
i just faded away
faded away to Nothing [comments] => 7 [counter] => 207 [topic] => 22 [informant] => Cancer [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 8 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => LostLove )

One thing that marks good poetry is the emotion a piece evokes from the reader. This made me cry. I love the ending - goodbye with a twist. Very nicely done.
