Gary Smith Poet Rhyme

Your Voice

What then, when drowning in sorrow
When my heart is torn from my breast,
When I care not for tomorrow
When faith is put to the test.

Life to me had lost meaning
Giving up the easier choice,
Just as my senses were reeling
I heard the sound of your voice.

Those words I heard eased my pain
For now I knew you were near,
I had felt your presence again
Your love, I knew was still here.

Therese Bacha November 29, 2018 at 6:07 AM Amazing Gary, even such a painful poem, sounds great. The picture is so expressive. I enjoyed the rhyming so much with the suffering in that poem. As usual very good choice. Terry xoox Gary Smith November 29, 2018 at 6:33 AM Thank you Therese. :)
