[hometext] => You think you've forgotten something, then Bam! the memories just smack you in the face... (With thanks to Neptunes_first)
[bodytext] => I silently watch the sun, as it rises over the land,
While my heart slowly freezes, touched by my own hand,
And the rays offer me no warmth, no happiness, no joy,
Ever since I took my heart, and let you have it as a toy.
And the birds all sing their early song, which only assaults my ears,
For I hear my own words intermingled, and my eyes shine forth new tears,
As I utter every curse word, and every single prayer,
To a god that never answers me, who I'm unsure is even there,
But no one else will listen, no one else will hear my cries,
As my heart is frozen solid in an early morning sunrise.
And the grass is crisp beneath me, as I walk myself away,
Blades lightly touched by shadow, just as I am today,
Because now I feel the memories, they infiltrate my mind,
As the wind whistles innocently, yet seems almost unkind.
And it seems the world is laughing, silently carried by the breeze,
But accompanied by music, as it swirls down through the trees,
And now, walking with the memories, the music and the sky,
I wander over to the place, where we became a lie.
And falling to my knees, I wonder if anyone hears my cries,
In the place my heart was frozen, in an early morning sunrise.
And I hug myself from the chill, which has crept into my veins,
And remember when it was your arms, which used to do the same,
But I know it was stolen away, one early morning filled with cries...
When my heart froze, while they echoed in the early morning sunrise..

Phil, there's not words on how to describe how i feel with you're poem.
It's like you wrote what im actually feeling right now in this time of my life.
You have writen this so perfectly and beautifly that im actually having tears in my eyes as i read it.
Good write and thanks for posting this.
*Hugs*

wow now this is a masterpeice.
I think most everyone can relate to this.
Sometimes god doesn't answer our prayers 'cause he does things very mysteriously and we may be asking for something that isn't good for us. he really wants us to jus trust him. That's all expects from us.
keep writing.
luv, huggs, smiles,
emy
We all fall on our knees from time to time, except maybe atheist. Nuthing against them intended jus a comaprison. |

Beautiful, beautiful, my friend. The nature imagery is wonderful, and the whole feel of the piece. I wish you didn't feel this sadness, but I'm glad that it can find expression in such a good way.
Blessings.

Well, I read this, re-read it... read it again ---- and ran straight to the Best Poem of the Day forum. Came back... read it again... and finally think I'm maybe ready to have a go at commenting.
Well, hunni --- I know you know that I can understand this (just as you did mine)... and for that reason "where we become a lie" tears me wide open. This is an extraordinary piece... I don't think I've yet seen anyone express THAT particular feeling (and the melancholy that comes with it) so well. But this is more than that... Geez - I feel like you somehow managed to say what has taken me a couple dozen poems and several months to express (and... I'm not so sure that I've been as complete even for the volume).
I don't have words enough for this, Philly. You are shining here. This, hun - is your moment... and gosh, how you've embraced it! I am incredibly proud of you --- for this, and for everything that brought it to the page.
So completely in love with this,
~Snemmy~ |

Trust me to be pedantic enough to pick out the one line that doesn't flow with the current of this rather eloquent river . . .
"As the wind whistles innocently, but seeming almost unkind."
The changes I'd suggest would be 'but' to 'yet' and 'seeming' to 'seems'. And that's it.
Almost not worth pointing it out, except for the fact that its the only imperfection there, and thus stands out to me against the irradiant background.
Glad I've read it, though.
You're improving significantly with every write.
Keep it up. |

I am completely blown away by your talent. I had to hold back the tears from flowing as I didn't want to have my read interupted by my lovely children, with a kind "Mommy, what's wrong?". Amazing, amazing work. I will definitely be looking for more from you in the future. Exceptional. :)
