Sometimes

Sometimes,

words escape me

as I ponder

the many happenings

of the day or

those to come.

 

Sometimes,

I am quiet

as silent

as the setting sun.

 

Sometimes,

I fear I fail

to let you in

on every detail

that has passed

my way.

 

Sometimes,

I am timid,

shy and lonely

when I spend

time without you

in my day.

 

Although,

these are all true statements

you should always know

that you are in those

private thoughts and feelings

of mine-

a shining beacon, a star

to behold.

Yes and sometimes we spend an entire lifetime waiting and wondering, trying to keep love alive and new.
This is a lovely piece of work Beth, it has a serenity about it that cannot be missed by your reader. There are many stars to behold and so many are looking at hem with the same longing as you have.
Perople are so fragile when it comes to love...
Cheers and thank you for a beautiful read...

your divine words truly capture timeless love, though you don't spend every moment together they are never more then a heartbeat a way. purely blissful write.

This is really nice. I don't quite like the fact that there is a sentence in a stanza. Breaking the sentence up like that kind of takes away from the poem. I love what it says.
Good Job.
