I tripped and fell in love ( contest poem )

by Grant Gilbert AKA Slash   Oct 3, 2008


I tripped and fell in love

I tripped and fell in love
With a vision, from heaven above
Touched down deep this soul of mine
Tries to weep, for it cannot find

My truest true love, lost and gone
I find myself now all alone
Our paths crossed, it's where I fell
So welcome to my living hell

For many years I've searched and searched
Now I sit upon this mountain perch
My mind is lost in a pool of grief
So stupid was I, beyond belief

I had you once you were mine
I'll search and search until I find
Or death can claim me forever more
If I cannot find you on loves distant shore

    Its been a while since I have read such loving words in your poem. A sad write filled with emotions. Your poems are marvelous no matter what the subject.

    Grant,

    why does love hurt us so, make us dwell on its memory always. It effects us so deep inside that it programs our brains on an emotional level.

    I can feel the pain and more so, the pain of loss, loss of love that once was so special.

    I can relate to this loss and can reassure you that there is light at the end of this dark tunnel.

    Well done for writing this poem. I know just how much it takes to write about such deep regret.

    Take care
