To hold the unbridled reins.
Of a wild heart untamed
To cry these tears without the pain
To never know you feel the same.

To hold to memories we know not why..
The past cannot be denied..
To ourselves we tell many lies..
To avoid the heart break of good-bye.

Time seems to fly so fast..
Like we are characters in a movie cast..
Wish that our friendship could outlast.
All the baggage from the past.

Ahh if only we could begin again..
I would never let you go my friend..
There would be no past no clocks, no end
If only time we could transcend

I do not want to live with your hate ..
For that I know I am to late..
To fix what is set by fate..
To take away my greatest mistake..

Ivory




This poem is dedicated to a lost friend ECA.. You know who you are.. May you always be happy.
May you stop being afraid...

Oooh! You used my favourite type of form for poetry! The use was great, Erica!

I love that end (though it wasn't part of the poem), "May you stop being afraid..." with the three dots to make you really think. Love that.

The poem itself was exquisite. One of your finest works that speaks to the reader with a soul behind it. I feel as if your soul, your real soul, is talking to me when I read it. I can really feel the emotion and the expression. Great work!

Warm Love,
