I see you in the pages of what I just read
The story of my life.
I read you my friend.
Do you love me
So much that my death would mean yours?
Am I Worthy of a footnote in reference to your heart?
Can you recall a time that your heart couldn’t lie,
That your mind would not let go,
That your soul was sublime?
I see you in my future something simple
Something perfect.
I’m sorry that I rolled up and threw away our life’s
just to undo and redo all that we had enjoyed.
Yet I see
I see we
I see our family
Like a moving picture slide on the canvas of reality
I want us!
I want to love like in the movies.
Let us transcend normality
Lets challenge each other in patience
Let’s meld our meanings together
Let us reach the heavens
Let us walk across the ocean
And swim through the sky
Let’s amble away from the anchors
That have kept us from our heights
Lets not give up yet
There is still so much more life.
oh my, this is so achingly beautiful…thankfully there are poets on this planet that paint our hearts and souls in words, so that when we die those in the future know we lived, we have lived tortuous and splendiferous lives behind the serene gorgeousness of modern lives we build for ourselves, but under it all, we’re just people. Thank you for your writing.
that was so kind… thank you
Very romantic and inspiring!!
heartfelt, beautiful. Your poetry is both accessible and profound.
What she said! 🙂 Thank you for sharing that.
thank you for reading it
Beautiful! I will RT!
This is beautiful
How Very Lovely!! 🙂
Just found you today… thanks for the like, btw. Save me a seat…
I have a seat for you right up front
This was very timely for me…
hope it made you smile
Perhaps poetry is an art that you can find your own words written through the lines of others. I find so much of my life in those words, and think you must be going through exactly the same thing as I am. Don’t give up.
well tell me…. what are you going through?
recovering from an affair
ah…. yes, I wrote this a few years ago when going through a divorce…. life is tough but we soldier on… I wish I had some great all powerful words that could take away all the hurt…. but all I have is what you can read and it doesn’t cure anything
No matter what we might try to tell others, we don’t miss what we don’t care about………. Beautiful. ~ Love, Bobbie
Wow 🙂
lol thanks
ah lovely and sad, a little weeping happened in reading this.
Get out of here!! you must of pinched yourself while reading it…
ha, modesty does not become you…! you have some lovely images in this piece, ineffable.
seriously though… did you really cry?
Really…Your amazing at this stuff….:)
LOL eh…. I’m ok….thanks
very nice and can feel it. i hear ya on that one.
You touched my heart with your words. It is such a deep and moving experience you have given to us all.
thank you so much…. it’s still hard for me to know whether people are being serious or not.. I can’t handle compliments
I for one am very serious with my appreciation for this beautiful poetry. Last night I posted something I had just written about losing a very special friend and hoping to mend the rift. It’s on my blog here. Reading Pages made me feel, at least, that I wasn’t alone with my grieving. It tapped into the very raw hopeless feelings.
well thank you.. I try my best to make people feel raw and helpless…lol 😉
Compliments can be hard, but just say thank you and know that if someone is taking the time to read your blog everyday, you mean something and it is real..
lol you know I tried saying thank you but then wordpress actually told me I couldn’t it said I already said that… I was dumbfounded I didn’t realize they would be editing my comments..
I didn’t know they did that either. I am new to blogging. I guess what they say about once it is out there, it will always be out there is true.
i really enjoyed this..your poems always have an edge to them….
🙂
FABULOUS !
Such a masterful and passionate poem of second chances asked for and a bouquet of flowers from your heart’s garden. You have reached a place of peace with this poem…and maybe it will be rewarded by the one love, whom you wish to share your completeness with! Really very nicely written with a spiritual and heartfelt flow!
What a touching poem. It has moved my very own soul, what talent!
that’s kind of you to let me know… thank you
Simple words strung together in heightened meaning. i am never disappointed by my visits here. Thank you!
wow..this was really beautiful…thank you for creating this poem…please let me borrow your line
“Am I Worthy of a footnote in reference to your heart?
Can you recall a time that your heart couldn’t lie,”…
its a good pick up line…. lol
I fell for it. 😉
Beautiful!
To have a love like in the movies –some movies–would definitely be pretty great. You express that longing. k.
Good piece
Nick
I love it! You write like I feel, very profoundly. Nice job!
well we much feel very much alike… cause I write how I feel too…
We must! Having profound and intense feelings are an attribute in my book. Keep up the good work!
yes we must… not much…lol DOPE!! what is your book?
My book is a work of fiction….LOL! Since my life does not seem real and I am referring to the book of my life….What is your book?? : D
Amazing! So powerful. Thank you for sharing YOU with all of us.
very nice and moving and uplifting.
beautiful words thank you
Melancholic but very moving. You write wonderful concise but emotional prose. I like it!
Very nice. Awesome.
“Lets not give up yet
There is still so much more life.”
Promise?
Great poem…
always… there is always more life to live
Really nice!
Your words are so touching and about you, I feel too, with everyday waking to follow where that breath guides me
I don’t understand what this is?
I don’t understand what this means?
“Do you love me
So much that my death would mean yours?”
i love this so much. inspiring.

Ah, the challenge …to reach loftier heights. The message resonates for most of us, i believe.
