    I always love your poetry. You write with such passion and beauty.

    Cold remains his empty heart
    No love left there to see
    Somehow I picture nothing
    Which is all he gave to me

    I know your feelings here. I am so glad your heart is singing once more :)
    Love Your Little Sis Cindy

    Ohh.

    Cold remains his empty heart
    No love left there to see
    Somehow I picture nothing
    Which is all he gave to me

    I loved the ending. The whole poem was amazing. Something I can relate to. Sad but beautiful write. Never stop writing!! Take care.

    Sad but beautifully done. Excellent word choice. The story is one many can relate to. I can not pick a favorite stanza as the poem in its entirety is amazing.

    So sad it is........ time waits for no one......
    So much promise but left with nothing......
    too late...to wait...the clock ticks on........
    till you find your deep and lonely one.......

    You are....

    It appears that you have met my ex-husband before. This sent chills up my spine reminding me how cold his eyes look and his heart remains.

    I in no way to offend, but--Oh my god!--this is absolutely fascinating. I was totally speechless at the moment I finished reading this piece and so I reread it again to make sure if it's just me or something... nevertheless, it has the same effect on me the moment I read it.
    What magic weaves this poem to trick me? =]
    I was completely entralled by this piece and by you as well, Ms. Debbie. After all, you're an enchanting poet.
    Love,
    Debbie

    I missed this one.. what a powerful ending!

    I got chills up my spine for some reason while reading this, i think it hit a little too close to home for my liking, lol
    But seriously now, outstanding work!
    5/5
