Another Life

 

I know the game we play

The one that hides

What we really feel

Things aren’t what they seem

For we hide behind the words

 

The banter, the falsehood

That all is fine

But is isn’t, not really

What happened to us?

 

To what we once were

The past, the future

It all went to hell

And everything changed

 

How do we get it back?

Do we even want to?

To go our separate ways

Maybe for the best

 

Always remember though

That I love you

And it may not even matter

For I go on without you

 

To another life….

Wow you are adding to my sunny Sunday morning. You writing is awesome. Every poem is stirring something up. You allow the reader to feel you every moment of this experience. I will be back to read some more. When you get a chance check out some of my other posting. I will post some new stuff next Sunday. I just plan on reading this week.

Be strong...the crossing into a new world is always difficult but well worth the effort. It is heart wrenching when relationships fall apart...what ever the reasons, it's so hard to let go. You seem to be braving the storm very well and I'm proud of you. Keep writing it...freeing it from your soul. Very universal piece, I hope it did quiet your mind and heart. Much love~~

I can see your mind, talking to self, weighing it out...I have one personal gripe, it has always bugged me to use, "For" instead of, "Because". But that's just me! eyepoetress

This was quite a tragic piece where I felt hints of anger and disappointment through some words...
This was great! You've captured what all goes through someone's mind through times like this and presented it in a very realistic way, something that leaves a mark upon the readers.
The pain is reflected through your writing and we all hope that everything turns out ok...oh! It surely will..
A great write!! Very well penned....^_^

[The Mad Prophet]

Very well expressed. It flows nicely, and it's good to place your emotions in the form of art so you can relax when real problems present themselves. With issues unresolved, current issues become even greater.

"Always remember though

Gorgeous poem! Absolutely lovely and yet heart-felt and honest. I love the flow of it, it's almost dream like, or like a trail of thought.
You write in such an innocent, pure and eloquent beautiful style, I absolutely adore it!a
