Short Left Too Soon Poems

The mist rolls in
I want to sin
Oh crescent moon
You left too soon 
My heart is sore  
Yet yearns for more...

Elliot Smith left too soon.
Given the gift of music.
A rare recording talent.
Needle in the hay.

Emma, where are you, where did you go 

You were sitting here by my side 

Then suddenly, you were gone

We never had a chance 

To sing one more song 

You left to soon

Without a 

Goodbye 

Why?...

Summer Sonnet.
Missing her in the height of summer,
She left so soon, my heart swoons in sorrow
Missing her so far, as the morning sun glows,
As midnight moon fading in the clouds.
So much doubts wallowering on my mind.

I have lost my love moon,
She was mine but left too soon,
Your light once shined on our love,
Now only darkness from above.

Oh moon why did she go?
She loved me you know,
Can you tell me why?
You see all from the sky.

Moon will you help me pray?
That she will return some day,
Let your romantic love light shine,
On this lost love of mine....

You think you know me
A river that runs deep
I am an ocean you fool
A sailors retreat

You think you know me
I'll let you in on this
You only know an iota
I am pure Bliss

You think you know me
By the light of the Moon
We needed more time
You left to soon

You think you know me
I laugh, you don't
Our fun was a second
You bailed, now run...

I love you when you're lucid
(or when your mind is going)
and even when the whiskers
of your confidence are blowing
I love it when your tannins 
filled with acid burn my mouth
and even when you stop short
asking what I'm all about.
I love it when your voice
all crackling, sunlit, fills the room
I love you even though I'm mourning
and you left too soon......

You don’t really love me, you 
never truly did. 
You still love her, after what she did.
She hurt you so deeply, so much I couldn’t 
heal.
I left you soon enough, hurt you further 
still.
I felt so guilty then, I cried myself to sleep. 
But you didn’t really love me; I’d fallen in 
so deep.
 Now nothing can I do, I finally know the 
truth....

Poet’s note: A father feels distraught that his daughter left them soon after birth upon not finding him there to hold her in arms, an admiring father. Later, after years he finds one he thinks she’s his daughter. The girl too feels that way. This Monoku summarizes his heart-felt feelings....

The Winds of change have come again.
 To think we've lost another friend.
It grieves my heart, you left so soon.
 I read your blog this afternoon.
A better place you've journeyed to.
 God Speed Harry, thinking of You.
 
 
Dedication to Harry Horsman.
My condolences to his family.
Also want to thank Mandy a
True friend of Harry's for
informing us...

Silence sings to starless souls
A melancholy tune
One that plays on endlessly
For those who've left too soon

Their danse macabre remains unseen
By those with mortal eyes
Though we will learn the steps one day
And twirl 'neath unlit skies

Sway with abandon, lift your feet
Whenever the churchbell tolls
You soon will move to the melody sweet
Silence sings to starless souls...

Just like a dream
You said good bye for good
Painful tears flow like a stream
A sorrowful mood
Am sure you're not done
You have a lot to offer
But I can't believe you're gone
And am here to suffer
Had I know is this near
I'd have prepare for this lackness
That I had to bear
Death so heartless
To seize you life
At the lazy hours of noon
Leaving your kids and wife
Alas! You left to soon...

your the only one that I could say we're actually bros

the only one to whom I would give my last dollar fo'


the only one that made me wiser every time you spoke

the one who comfort mom's when she lost her hope


yeah, your life emitted light, you were a special soul

even those you've never known always said it showed


sorta got me wondering when's it my time to go.

cause it's hard to comprehend why you left so soon...

The fog is creeping through the trees
The woods have lost many leaves
There's a veil of gray from high to low
All is still, no wind to blow
It looks like smoke has covered land
Autumn tries to understand
Why its color has left so soon
And the birds have changed their tune
Until tomorrow, sun returns
To ease ill tension that churns
Change dismal views to memory
And bring new sights with clarity

He was such a beautiful soul
That left too soon for me
His laughter always came through
He reminded me of Santa because
He always jiggles when he laughs
And he would give you his last dollar
He was also a wiseman
His advice was spot on
He was in the world at
A very young age so, he
Experienced a lot that's why
He had a cool nature and was a
Vert fine dresser
He loved his family so much
That when God called him home
He stayed six weeks over...

Here's to all you gorgeous ladies of the Soup
May your stars continue to shine
You're the brightest light in the heavens each night
The warmth of the sun on my skin each summer's day
I raise my glass in tribute to all you sweethearts
I have lost some very close friends here recently
But some very close loyal friends remain 
Hopefully those that have left will soon return
And once again help to brighten up our days
Long live the Ladies of the Soup...

You left too soon,
You where selfish leaving me behind,
I begged you to take me with you,
But you didn’t.
You left me heat to make all my decisions on my own.

Do you know how much I miss you?
Do you know how much I cry every time I sleep and wake?
I won’t see you ever again!!!!! 
I won’t ever see my queen waking up,
My queen smiling...
I will be with you soon my queen ... don’t be scared.
I need to be with you.
I love you. I love you. I love you....

THE CLOUDS

I LOOK AT THE CLOUDS,
AND I SEE YOUR FACE..
YOU LEFT TO SOON,
WITHOUT A TRACE.
I'M LEFT TO WONDER,
IF YOUR HAPPY AND FREE,
AND IF YOU;LL EVER LOOK BACK AT ME.
I'LL MISS OUR TALKS,
AND YOU JUST BEING THERE,
NOW YOUR GONE, 
IT JUST ISN'T FAIR.
I NEED YOU TO KNOW,
THAT I LOVE YOU,
AND KNOW THAT I CARE,

WHEN I LOOK AT THE CLOUDS...
Please Be There...

In Loving Memory
Of My Loving FATHER,
MAYNARD L. HEFT Sr

Love Always,
Your Daughter,...

Red-blooded moon
We drink its honey
It’s out of boon
The nightmare’s coming.

We cannot sail
The gardens faded
Poets will fail
And love is jaded.

The blind chance
leads in the nowhere
The cold changes suns
And all is over.

I took a whip
Oh, poet’s honey!
The muses weep
And it is funny.

They say find peace
And don’t be angry
They’re on their knees
And they are hungry.

Friends left me soon,
Because of money
Red-blooded moon
I drink its honey....

What can I give when I am broke 
To he whose words inspired?
For the little ember that he stoked 
I’d give him all my fire 

What can I give when I am poor
To he who set me free?
For each and every open door 
I’d give an endless sea

What can I give when I have nil
To he who left too soon?
For knowing that he’s with me still
I’d give the very moon

What can I give of any worth
To he who gave me love?
For all the riches on this earth
Could never be enough....
