_________________________________
oh, lonely is the bed you've made; as lonely as the rich man's grave
where self importance fades away
your image fades in mountain mists
there is no miracle more cruel than this-
returning sent me spiraling down deeply; an abyss
love spent upon frustration; my soul is tired beyond recognition
love once real enough to move earth and skies-
and oceans crossed; your love has worn me out with its lies
oxodized my soul; hugs nor love nor photographs returned;
you went on with life whilst i sat here and burned
now why appear as if to haunt me; taunt me
to put me in my place? me thinks; not.
or mayhap to gather the strewn about endings that
you created; i will not help you collect these bits
you and i, are now an explosion of words unspoken;
you didn't leap bounding out of my imagination
the love shared twas a firey passion
now; new born mouse that will never squeak
heart twice taken by same storm; now dying alone tattered and torn
torrential rains upon this soul; with heart and mind no longer whole
same love twice tasted, each time jaded; nevermind, all love has faded
once warmed by hopeful embraces; defiant winds blow cold assumptions
how long can my poetry be a healing salve
for this wounded heart filled with sorrow
it is a horrible thing to be so open; hurled-
it is as if my heart walks out in the world
no longer wondering why; heart twice bitten; now thrice shy
too little too late; blows our winds of fate.

Love comes in so many forms- Never forget the love of your children. You're a beautiful woman inside and out and one day, some man will come and make you sooo happy that i'll just have to cry for you.

Love you mom *grins*

What words do I have to tell of such beauty though in sadness most profound. Amazing I must say for a write so nonchalant it tapers souls and wrenches hearts. I am amazed upon my sight. If this is a poetic discourse then you do indeed my dear poet a wonderfully skilled participant in this poetic flows. If this is your life's story then to thee I wish these words as a balm as to each tear you have shed for that unfortunate time. Love is a crazy story told and retold always unsound only sometimes may we find that gentle niche for us to belong. Before that doomed to wander are our souls. Rest easy sweet sorrows for your gentle heart here evident shall in the future I hope will find a nice ledge for you to rest upon, perhaps a gentle man to soothe your tumultuous climes.Once again a nice write herein.

Heart wrenching. I can relate. Wish I could say I was as smart as you. How long before the well runs dry? This is so packed with emotion and longing and regret and pain and acceptance.

This is sad but wonderful told. I can never get the words to flow that would tell of the road of life and it forks. I always take the wrong turn. Thank you

Wow!! Do I ever feel this! Such a cluster of emotions leaping off the page. I'll never understand why for some it is enough to stir up feelings in another, only to take a step back when they do. Ah, well, our lives are richer for the experience. ;)


P.s you have a mighty fine stinger on you, Miss Nessa!
