Too Many Times
A Poem by
Carolann Dowsett
This is one of my older poems. I lost the copy I wrote but lately it has been running through my head so I thought I would share it.
Too many times I've cried the tears Of a broken heart and shattered dreams Too many times I've tried to sleep But the loneliness and pain has been too deep Outside the rain cries angry tears in the night I wish you were here to hold me tight To tell me you love me like you did long ago To bring new life to my damaged soul But I know I can't have you so I'll keep up the fight And pray that my darkness will turn into light

A sad and beautiful old poem. Good to hold old memories and thought close. Keep us feeling alive and human. I like the description and how you ended the poem. Sometime praying and sleep is where we can find peace. Thank you for the excellent poetry.

A sweet but hurting longing. I like how it starts out sort of defeatist and ends in hope. You're very good with structure I admire this.

This is touching Carolann. The pain of past memories can cause quite a painful sting, but there is always that ray of hope in our lives somewhere. Just a little searching must be done to find it. Beautiful write!

Your sad rhyme brings a heavy heart. This resonates within me...strong write, unfortunate so many have lived among these words.
'Outside the rain cries
angry tears in the night'
I've heard this dimal rain....beautiful Carolann.

Thanks so much Kee nice to see you back. :)
In the face of ones darkness there's always some light and the memories of a loved one is not perfect not even in the movies there's always good times as well as bad, but to want something sometimes we know we can't have is always sometimes the hardest to get over. Nice flow of writing and as always keep writing fellow writer.
