I Could.....

I could travel all around the world

And never escape the image

Of her face in every drop of rain

 

I could crawl into the darkest depths of the world

And never escape

 The echo of her name

 

I could walk into the desert

‘Till my mouth went dry

And never would I find the reason why

 

I could fly into the rising sun

Even Burning up

 Believing that she was the one

 

I could swim to the bottom

 Of the deepest sea

And never find that which is now lost to me

 

I could climb to the tops

Of the highest peaks on earth

Even so……

I still will not find my hearts rebirth

A poem of a broken heart seeking a day of revival.

The first two collected sets didn't rhyme and that caught me a little off guard when they started to
But this piece kind of scared me.
For the person.
Like a since of hopelessness and confusion over powered everything.
Like I could look at the most beautiful sunset and still feel a deep stab in my heart that that person wasn't there to share it's beauty with me.
Painful Mr. Lopez...
Painful.

This is really sad, perfect for a broken heart. The irony of this world is that our best works always comes from a broken heart. It is surely sad but so true and honest too!

wow! Pining away for someone, who cant relate? The passion, sadness and lonliness is echoing through my heart. Riveting, I keep wanting to go back and read it again, and again... My heart aches

this is so touching to me! the feeling and thoughts that go through one's head when they can't forget...is just horrible. i know exactly how it feels, almost like you hate someone so much, but you don't want to live without them. i know many people don't understand this writing, but you really spoke to my heart in this piece!!

brilliant!

This to me speaks of lifes learning lesson in love. How we find something, think it unbreakable; perfect, then it falls away, and we are left empty, not understanding why things went the way they did, or how it all happened.
Overwhelmed we walk the path you write about, hoping and wondering if things will be made whole again in ourselves.

A beautiful piece Mr Lopez!

Touched me again, I caught goos bumps. Deep feelings and glorification, smashing.
The rhyming didn't fallow at the beginning, but it appeared after the first two verses.
Then the poem made me sink into it. Love makes us live trough a crazy routine, that brings
skill and experience, but the routine doesn't want to stop, it keeps scolding and barking
till we almost dry out, and then it stops - when we have emptied ourselves running around
homes, towns, cities, countries, lands, continents, planets, satellites and galaxies. Great work! ;)

eloquent.......Those carrying scars can certainly relate....your words seem woundingly fresh and yet I suspect time has weeded itself amoungst the memories.

[TamiViolet]

This is a wonderful piece, wrapped in emotion. Although I enjoyed each and every line, one really created both image and mood...'her face in every drop of rain'....Oh, so lovely that it pulls and tugs at the heart. Romantic and dark...deep and sublime.... The revelation of that which could never be for whatever reason... The heart does revive, and in many instances hindsight allows us to understand that it worked out for the best. Font and color are hugely appealing. Substance is superb in quality...
