I am old
When I was young Fell in love Fell deeper yet Then deeper yet Two things I never would have bet That she would die My giant shell of love Fill empty with regret. I am gone When I was young Loved by one Gave back the same Gave more the same Two things I never would have dreamed He'd remain And ever be in pain And just remain. |

Annyjo,
Thank you, but that pain was eliminated greatly by the act of putting the emotions into words and expressing them. The loss of a dearly loved one is a tough thing that so many people face. It took me many years and three tours of duty in Iraq to finally shed the burden of pain, but I did it and now seek nothing but happiness for however many years I have left. Thank goodness there are wonderful people in the world and wonderful guitars to fill my days. Thanks again, G. |

Pretty new here; just popped by to see what's going on. Good poem, and I'm glad it helped soothe the hurt. Maybe I'll post some of mine.
