Dancing With Bones

Once upon a time we were falling in love
Now you look down from up above
Once I was as free as a dove

Now I sit alone in this dark conner
Friends turned to strangers, loner 
My heart does not work, and there is no suitable donner

My tears for you have put out my hearts fire
You no longer sit and stoke my hearts pire
You were the conductor of my heart's choir

No more concerts or melodies,
can't harmonize.

My tears are as numerous as the stars
You inquire about my heart, I have locked it behind bars.
All these thought come to mind, New scars.

Deeper, bloodier, cry harder.

The seven seas can not contain tears
nor soothe my fears,
of living a live without your caresses

AND now, I can only think as I watch you sink to the floor:
Four feet, we could of been four
Five feet, only had to wait five weeks more
Six feet, and once more my tears pour

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Penehafo H.,, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
