Hello?

Sigh.

Some days I think I've reached the point where life at last goes on.
I think I've come at last to truth and now accept you're gone.

But then I have a lousy day, a day that tries my hope.
That's when I remember, how your voice would help me cope.

On those days, I miss you so. I call to beg you home,
But I never have the nerve to speak, and just hang up the phone.

Just messin' around.

I like this one. The rhyme scheme works well and it makes a statement that has the qualities of reality and real emotional content. It is also short but shall we say not so sweet. Not to common in this world of poets so full of themselves that they need stanza after stanza to repeat and reiterate the same old themes. If this is you just messing around I cannot wait to see what you accomplish when you put your entire mind to a project such as a poem. I myself, have written only a very few poems that have more that six or eight sentences, however I think that if a concept cannot be stated in a few well chosen words that it may not be worth stating at all. Keep up the good work my fellow poet and I shall keep an eye on your latest projects.
Peace&Love be with you...~M~

Heartbreak never ends when true love is there.

sometimes we go back down a lonely road
and then remember we didn't like the trip much anyway . . .

I believe the poem tells the tell. When those days seem like everyday, then you have made some serious progress. It is hard to let go. But you know what they say about letting go and it coming back? Then it was meant to be. ?
