romantic sweetheart Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 The young days are over Over forever The gods close up the skies And seal all our sighs The rocks push up from earth It is the end of all birth Last kisses are kissed Sand slips through our fists Waves become wings Drowning sweet things And talking is ceased Of man and beast The romance is over Over forever Hands loose from hands Canyons separate the lands Winds blow from the west We lay in eternal rest Buried in the ground No colour or sound We loved once each other Then torn cruelly asunder Rest to the broken souls While the death bell tolls When life is ended Something is mended Eyes pressed closed No more tears flow No sound, just light Giving way to the night And lying in wait For some happier fate Between the here and now Smooth the furrowed brow Honour us our rest Do not weep for our death The hurt and the wound Will be over soon Roses bloom in the east Thorns coexist with peace So our lives did stand For something just as grand We meant to live forever Twin flames must go together When young days are over over forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cherokeelion Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 The heart is complex and rules my world. Sometimes I wish that wasn't so but not often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherokeelion Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 My longing comes from a desire to find peace in a world that is constantly in flux. I am juggling so many things that something needs to drop. It also stems from decisions I made earlier in life that affect me now. I also long for the woman I love who is now gone, a reality that is fresh and tough to accept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cherokeelion Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 No, I don't write... not because I don't like to but because I am limited for time. I like to read more that to write. Poetry is a thoughtful expression of a persons mind if done well and I enjoy the insight into that persons mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
