You captured my mind
In that philosophy thread I couldn't get you Out of my head. That sweet little smile And, oh so gentle way I remember your first email Like it was yesterday. We talked and discussed You opened my eyes With you I never felt My feelings I need disguise. We parted ways Thinking we'd return I had no idea that the Wheel of Fate was going to turn. I have few regrets in life But, this one I know Burns deeper than any Because I didn't go. I miss you, my friend And, I now understand That life is too short To delay taking someone's hand. |

It's the first poem I've written since my 12th grade Creative Writing class. But, someone reminded me of Steve this morning and I started to cry. And, then this came out.
RIP Steve. ![]() ![]() |

It truly is a beautiful poem. ![]() I agree. And you should write more often than just at times when an old flame passes away. Do it in-between as well. We shan't force you to fall for someone while he is still alive -- hey, that would be like asking you to become happy? -- but surely you could write some poetry which is not dependent on someone else's passing away. How do we know that that sweet guy passed away for sure? |
