Can tell I 've missed you
your words ring so loudly true

Always feel the depth from which you write.
Good stuff

The depth of sadness so skillfully expressed in a few words... very, very well done!

Blessings and best wishes - S.

Thomas said it, HEAVY. But wait, for the ending of a love to compare with the closing of Heaven's door? It must have been a great & special love with many memories to be cherished. Memories some of us may never get the chance to make.

Yes, I do grieve with you, with this poem but you have been to the pinnacle and something tells me to there you will return though it may be with another. God Bless.

And God Bless this little slice of your talents. Thanks.

Love is so many contrasts that sometimes being loved more means being alone. I feel your heart on your sleeve, Pisces.

You paint the sky with sorrow. Your last 3 lines sum up this thought with ever longing on a grand scale shown in your choice of descriptions.

I hope you do a Snippets Edit on this Shelbia and place this over in Snippets ~ "Where WE WRITE in "30" words or less, and delete the rest." . . . .

I'd like to SEE how you would edit this to bring this to 30 words.

The Snippets Crew awaits YOU!

I'm reading your poetry for the first time today. This is so poignant. If you have ever lost a love, you know that pain that seems that it will never end. You have expressed it so gently that it is not raw, but yet it is full of emotion. Thank you.
