[hometext] => I actually kinda like this one. Hope you do too.
[bodytext] => I might choose to breathe a breath not of you
Please don’t think I’ve let go
My confession is due
If the tears that fall shatter at your feet
Don’t think I’ve let go
My withered heart still beats
I cannot stay here and stand in your way
In the fragmented hope
That what’s gone can still stay
I won’t do to you what’s already done
I’m cleaning up the mess
Of all we’ve said and done
‘Cause I never meant to be the one
That brought you here
This place of fear
I never meant to break the broken
I can’t mend it
It’s all ending
And I never meant to lose myself
Forsaken light
Embrace the night
I never meant to stop believing
Nowhere to go
But where I know
There’s nothing to do but sit here with you
Smoking your cigarette
Under a sky so blue
I’m too old to scream and too young not to
Remember to forget
All that I’ve put you through
I have no words to speak, thousands to pen
So we feed the silence
And waste away again
What am I to do in a loveless world
Not knowing where to turn
I watch it all unfurl
‘Cause I never meant to bring you down
To live a lie
Watch it all die
I never meant to throw it away
The love we had
Has turned to bad
And I never meant to be the one
That wasn’t me
Or what you see
I never meant to need you too much
I guess we’re stuck
And out of luck
I never meant to write a secret book
I got lost in the pages
So lost within the ages
I fear I feel it coming to an end
Losing all rhyme and reason
Changing with the seasons
I never meant to kill it, but it’s gone
These tears of broken glass
Become my twisted looking glass
And you know I see you in the shards
Your face will never fade
Here within my heart of jade

Dee, you KINDA like it? I love this one! It's definitely my all-time favorite by you, and you've written some verrrrrry good ones before. I was enthralled from the first word and I gotta admit, Dee, I'm impressed. I especially loved the bit that went

Just every word of that sounded so good and rang so true . . . well, I'm officially a fan. Now sorry, I'd comment more, but I'm off to mention this in the "special poems on this site forum".

| Moonlit. This was an absolutely beautiful piece. It struck so many cords. It was abosolute. Perfect. I with that the Goddes will guide you to what you need. I truly hope that the best comes to you no matter what. Hope is one of the strongest things. I hope everything works out for you in the end. |

Moonlit - Have you been peeking in my head? I could have written much of this myself... though, perhaps not as well as you have done here. This is wonderful!
I echo the other comments - there are some truly fabulous lines in this piece. I'd name my favorites - but I'd probably wind up including the entire thing! Well, well done! |
