But Then Every Once in a While
October 17, 2009
Written by: Rose Marie Rideout

 

With each step I walk through life,
I vision you by my side.
I wonder do you feel this way,
But then every once in a while,
I see you through the corner of my eye,
Your mind off in a distance,
And I wonder, do you feel this way?

When a teardrop falls to my cheek,
It’s because I think of you,
When a smile crosses my face,
But then every once in a while,
I realize it is because I think of you,
My dreams take me to your arms,
And I wonder, do you feel this way?

I smell your scent of cologne in the air,
I feel your embrace everywhere,
I see your face as I turn around,
I hear your footsteps though there’s no sound,
Though you are always here,
But then every once in a while,
I wonder, did you ever care?

Wonderfully written sis, but so sad. It reminds me of a couple I do know here in Ontario and he is suffering with Alzheimer's, when the wife and I talk, this is how she describes her life with him now. They were such a loving devouted and beautiful couple.

Love you sis,
Selena

Deep. Some have trouble expressing their emotions and think that just being there proves their love. I believe he thinks of you a lot. Beautiful poem. Liz

You touch something deep within all of us, our (momentary or prolonged) fears and doubts, perfectly natural.

Ahhh Rose of late when your write of romance your words are warm, tender and as smooth as glass. We all when we love stop to wonder from time to time...if not...we would take too much for granted, wouldn't we?

....I think it is human to wonder...I also think the one that is so intuitive to care how another feels is from a caring heart,, wonderful write Rose!

Nice work Rose, your poem has that ellusive thought embedded within the ending, to know and feel the very presence of a loved one and yet knowing there is that small if placed within the mind...a nice work of thoughts through poem...

Agree with Georg, Rose, pray this is fiction. So convincing, your words of sadness and loneliness - well done.

"...I hear your footsteps though there's no sound..." tenderness come to mind and a loneliness of spirit that one hope come from Muse's fiction.
