Whisper

If I whisper to the wind will you hear my pain My love for you my hate and heartache Or will it fall on deaf ears as many times before Bottle tilted back harsh words slamming door And now I know you lie still and all alone No more drunken fights or crazy rides home Quiet such a comfort in the darkness here I sit If only you had changed just a little bit The grounds so cold no warmth or love to give It’s just what you deserve and left to those that live Why I worshipped you and sought to love you more Cold and distant you were always walking out the door It’s best that you can sleep under your favorite tree By the stream in the field was where you liked to be Someday I hope to visit you and remember your smile But love it’s going to be a few years you were so vile.

A very sad poem, Kelli. It seems to me that everybody has their own opinion about what love is. In order to find it, first one must know what it is. Sadly, most don't know.

Thank you SO. Without love we would have never known loss. Souls are such different species in this life.
