In the Distance

Tonight I can write the saddest of lines writing for example, the night is of stars and the stars are of opals and shimmer in the distance The night winds revolve around the sky, it sings of resistance Tonight I will write the saddest of songs I loved her and she loved me too sometimes Through nights like this one, I held her in my hands as I kissed her Again and again under the timelapse skies She loved me and sometimes I too loved her how could I have not loved her deep still eyes Tonight I can cry the saddest of poems to think that I dont have her and to feel that I have lost her To hear the immense night, still more timelapse with out her and the verses fall, into my soul, like pain for the pleasure What does it matter if my hands couldn't keep her in this starry night timelapse, she is gone forever, no more is sure This is all In the distance Some one is singing in the distance Some one is crying some one is dying Without her in the distance Oh, it's just me and my sight tries to find her My heart looks for her My ears hear for her And now I no longer love her But oh how I loved her and my voice tried to find the wind to touch her hearing... in the timelapse sky Because nights like this one are like the nights I held her in my hands but This will be the last pain she makes me suffer and the last verse I write for her...In the distance

Thank you..... I take a few lines and words from other poets, yet change all the words, creating my own version. Some yell, PLAGERISM..Nope, poets have done this since day one, its just expanding. The structure is almost the same, but purely my own with verbiage.
