If our souls meet again,
let mine forget hers...
Even though the sound of my cries
Can only be heard in my mind...
A vase of roses sits upon my table
I just can't bear to touch or toss...
I walk alone beneath a darkened sky,
Sky crackling thunder where the guilty lie...
I walked beneath a weeping sky
Where shadows stretched too long...
It gets so dark,
that I can't see...

The saddest tears are the driest ones seen in the bravest smile. |

Don't tell one who writes of grief to rethink their "I" statements. When you know they had tears on their hands as they wrote, don't say the poem could be better. You might as well say their grief could be worse. |

If someone shares a poem with you that is meant to help close an open wound, they don't want your opinion. They want your hand on their shoulder, gripping it tight. |
