Is It Just Me

I wish I could feel
 what she is feeling,
If there is pain there too
 that she is concealing.
I wonder if she cries
 both day and night
And if she is blinded by darkness
 that shines so bright

Does she play with loneliness?
and his friend insanity too
Has she found the same purpose, 
with a vision of clarity?
That the unfairness of love
 would be a life time reality. 

I know I made a promise 
To keep her from harms way
But the agreement to live without her
Was life’s unfair choice that I have to pay
Was I just a moment  to her
An experience in time
And she being my endless love
That will never be mine

Alas, she greeted me the other day
With a perky “Hi”
But for me, nine months on 
I still have this feeling…I want to die
Is it just me? 
or does she feel this way too
She meant everything to me
my beloved YOU…

Now I know just how sweet you are! Very emotional but no satisfaction. Write another one with a happy ending.

Somehow these questions may never be answered but I am glad you are not holding them inside, you are actually putting them out there so that they don't stifle you.. enjoyed this Sidney, hope your weekend's been good, love Wilma

* wow * this amazing Sydney * as if perhaps both of your hearts * hold such a deep love for one another but * as if at the very time * there lie a divisions wall somehow which * built amid the mortar a * never meant to be * kind of like “Romeo & Juliet” * beautiful in the shades of bittersweet * love sarah
