Where Are You

We all make our own mistakes in our relationships and even though they may be hurtful we have to know our love is strong enough to forgive and let the past go. First we have to accept the responsibility for what we have done and be able to forgive ourselves if we expect someone else to forgive us and then let it go, never to be brought up again. Is it worth having to live a lost and lonely life without the love of our life in it?

Where Are You
October 13,2008
Written By: Rose Marie Rideout


Where are you?,  I’ve missed you,
 You’ve been away for so long it do seem.
So often I wake still wiping my tears,
From what I’ve vision in my dream.
I think it is time you stopped wandering,
It’s time you’ve come back home.
We can forgive and forget the past,
Please don’t leave me  another day alone.
We all make mistakes in our life,
It is part of who we really are,
But we can get past all the hurt,
Move on without leaving a scar.
Love is a strong binding,
Meant to salvage mistakes we do,
Nothing can be so damaging
Mistakes were made by both me and you.
No one to blame, it just happened,
One lonely night, I know it isn’t fear,
Just one lonely night my darling,
We thought the other no longer cared.
Where are you tonight love?
Are you gazing up at that special star,
As I am staring up in the sky,
Wondering dear where you are.
Though my tears are washing the pain,
My heart is beating real bad,
As I lay here in this empty cold bed,
Feeling lost, lonely and sad.
Where are you? Won’t you please come home?
I’m feeling alone and blue.
My life can’t be complete dear,
If I have to live life without you.

Sometimes when one slam the door shut it stays shut.
Sometimes stumbling and falling doesn't give a chance of coming up and go on walking.
Sometimes all what is left is..."where are you?"

Rose....this is very nice, and happens too often... I "almost" did the same...and that is why I'm back with Joe... Better to live in his world, than live without him in mine.... At this age, it's just too lonesome... good writing. lindalaw

Wow Rose, such inward sentiments and all that must be endured through and with love being the building block. Thoughts of one still and forever in love...

Be always safe,

Life doesn't always give us the choices we would pick, especially when it comes to love. The only consolation we can really have when we lose such a love is to know that for a little while something special is shared. Great poem Rose, well done.

My favorite lines are,

"Are you gazing up at that special star,

As I am staring up in the sky,

Wondering dear where you are."

Is that a question? The punctuation seems questionable. How DO you punctuate that correctly? It seems like a question and a statement. I don't really know how it is supposed to be.

Nice sentiment in the poem, though well covered already in pop culture, but still a good choice for AD. We are all still learning here, especially me Rose. --- Rockie
