i thought it was so beautiful i cried when i read it. One of my friends had a fuss with someone and wrote it. so its definatly not my poetry im not that talented. it seemed appropiate since we are trying to make the forums a fun place again. please do not read anything into this. it is not directed towards anyone or b/c of anyone i just wanted to share this with ya'll.

I didn't know it was goodbye.
Harsh words spoken and thrown,
Parting in a heat of anger,
But I didn't know it was goodbye.

I'll never see your face again,
Never again will I hear your voice,
The good times had come to an end.
But I didn't know it was goodbye.

I never would have said those things.
I never would have called you those names,
If it meant one more day as friends.
I didn't know it was good bye.

Too many times I wanted to pick up the phone.
Too many times I wanted to knock on the door.
To be able to have the good times again,
If only it hadn't been goodbye.

I'm sorry,
I didn't know.
I didn't know this was goodbye

i speak perfect english but i cant spell worth a flip LOL

Well Maayan, your English composition is excellent considering English is not your native language. Your errors are few, and inconsequential. You still convey your thoughts clearly, and you have no spelling errors. So pat yourself on the back! :-))

what is your native language Mayaan? your english is very good.

that was really sweet, but very sad.. Maayan...

as it happened one night
it twisted and turned
we wonder how can it be
so smote it be...

the energies are there
for us to sometimes share
we wonder how can it be
so smote it be...

what we do
with our subtle bodies
is sometimes the opposite
of our physical bodies
we wonder how can it be
so smote it be...

as it comes to light
we learn to control the sight
it seems worth the trouble
we wonder how can it be
so smote it be...

me with a slightly wiccan edge...
lisa feel free this is a general poetry thread not just poetry tennis LOL

ohh gawd

where do i even begin.
husbands that come and go
friends that come and go
families that come and go

it takes me a minute
even to comprehend
what it means when one
disappears yet again

the sadness the dispare
the heart that was one
breaks slowly in two
twice the time it takes
to heal it again

time crawls by
and it still doest mend
and then one day
i gave up the fight
and began to live again.

that was a bella original...please be kind in your critiquing

hugs back glad im not the only one bawling my eyes out over this poem

Yes I can...when you read her poem you can imagine yourself in the same spot with someone you really cared about...

God you guys have no idea how much this is making me cry right now

Oh my gosh! That was so pretty and sad and pretty.

I'm getting all squishy and emotional over here now. Gosh that was so beautifully sad.
