Waters Forever

I held what I held dearly, closely to my heart,

Like beauty at my eyes and scarlet lashes,

Dewed from the drops of blood.

He said, "You mustn't jump,

I beg of you not."

I said, "I will, I will,

you watch."

He held me closely to his chest with warmth

while he said back to me,

He said, "I beg you, I beg you not,

But dear, follow you,

I shall not."

Very sad. It almost has a hopeful ending. Its a very good write

[Judy Ponceby]

So sad and yet he is wise, perhaps giving a bit of hope. Well written in so few words.
