I remember how you looked that day The morning, you went away I remember everything you said I could not speak just softly breath away Upon the shore, about to leave There were just too many voices in my head It was the first day of a morning spring A cold chill the moment on that day I stood and watched you with a smile I never saw you without a thing to say As we stand today close for a while Your warm body comforts me so today I know in a cool springtime rain I think of you, once more again I’ll never know why, I could not say Just how hard it was for me that day The words are now frozen on my lips As I stood on the dock alone that day And I watched as you slowly drifted away Watching from a veil’s hidden rips The chill of the cold won’t lose its grip And hangs from my neck like a chain To think of you just once more again And how warm you felt in the cold dark rain I don’t think I will ever know And how fast the time did go I will always feel deep in my heart We were just never meant to part Soul mates never go, so here I am again As I await in the cold spring morning rain Knowing you will be back with me again As I leave my cold body in the rain

Exciting and excellent. Your lines fascinate me "The chill of the cold won’t lose its grip And hangs from my neck like a chain To think of you just once more again And how warm you felt in the cold dark rain"..... This is just awesome

I believe that poets are born not made. Believing this, I read to interpret you not just the poetry. With this said...I feel as if I know you now that I have read your poetry. You put "you" into your work. Good job!!

I believe the same and the things you take in from life comes out in attractive words that catch the eye like a painting, thank you for stopping by

Profound the poem has been indeed The pain amidst the spring and rain Once we loved and loved again It's time now to look back and bleed

Whether through bereavement, life circumstances or forced separation the parting of soul mates is a sadness felt in every bone, muscle and sinew of your being. You have to have felt it to know it, it cannot be imagined in the intensity that it actually occurs. The sense of departure for all of these circumstances is conveyed in your verse. Kind regards, Ian

Beautiful. To part is somehow necessary because all partings are only beautiful in the hope of meetings again. To meet and to part is truly a harmonious couple.

Well written with a sense of loss. My wife and I recently celebrated 43 years of marriage. Memories will last forever with 'special ones' of 'waiting in the rain'. Thank you for sharing. Curtis.
