When December came

When December came

A Poem by Johanna
"

"I thought that when December came, everything would be okay again.."

"

Every second feels like a minute

Every minute like a day

I´ve been counting them

Ever since you went away


 

It´s been thirty eight days

Seven hours, ten minutes

Since you said goodbye

I been writing letters that I

haven´t sent

Thinking thoughts that I haven´t meant

Counting every heartbeat

Every star in the sky

Because I 

Thought that when December came

Everything would be okay again

I thought that when December came

My worries would melt with the snow

I thought that when December came

I would be able to let you go

 


Every hour feels like a month

Every month like a year

I´ve been counting hours

Ever since you left me here

 


I´ve been picking up the phone

Only to hang up

Pretending that I´m fine alone

That if I only held on long enough

For the cold wind to blow

For each lantern to glow

For the freezing birds to fly

Cause I 

Thought that when December came

Everything would be okay again

I thought that when December came

My worries would melt with the snow

I thought that when December came

I would be able to let you go

Hey, Johanna-pretty!

This write's really very touchable, very emotional, very smooth-delight, soft as same as a wind, cold as same a snow, thin as same as a rain and beautiful as same as just like you. I enjoyed even I felt every words, every moment of the poem and I liked it that you've a talent of writing. This's called "Truly penned" stuff, your called "A True-Writer" who doesn't write by the hand, who doesn't even write think from the mind but always write what a heart of yours feel to write beautifully.

Even though, you didn't just write a poem but you poured the scent of your kind and a pure soul into the words, the scent of your beauty you penned into the theme, the words came from your heart and of course the whole poem's well written into the words of yours with an every-beat of your beautiful, scented, kind, soft, smooth heart.

Wonderful, beautiful, amazing as well as an outstanding poem!

This is so very cool. I love the entire feeling of this piece even though sadness seems to decorate each line. The tag, "I thought that when December came" is so song like, a very melodic flow to this. You have expressed your feelings very nicely. Well done.
