She held the curtain to her cheek not yet ready for a tear It would take alot to sadden that face for she had never known a fear But I drove away just the same with a regret or two of my own She just didn't know how many nights she'd be sobbing by the phone 'What was that spirit he brought she pondered on a tear stained pillow..?' 'With him I felt alive again like a bluejay singing to a weeping willow..' How does she count the days when her silver pot no longer has it's shine? She counts all as death in the terrible truth she'd lost one of a kind

So poignant! Hope this is not taken from life experience. If yes, you shouldn't have stolen her heart like this, knowing well the suffering she would be subject to. In any case thank you for the poem nicely penned!

Abby.. Thank you sweet. I'm a one woman man make no mistake. If I find a woman, ( if ), there is no other woman in my mind or thoughts. She becomes the queen of my every desire. This poem is just fictional dear. Lol. Cafe

A very sad scene of one leaving while the other who is left behind is mourning.
Such is life, there are times when tears means happiness for the other. But it'll come to pass. And before we know it, love is alive all over again.
Great write Jim.
So glad to see you back.

She held the curtain to
her cheek not yet ready
for a tear.
It would take a lot to sadden
that face, for she had never
known a fear.
But I drove away just the same
with a regret or two of my own.
She just didn't know how many
nights she'd be sobbing by the
phone.
'What was that spirit he brought,
she pondered on a tear stained
pillow..?'
'With him I felt alive again like
a bluejay singing to a weeping
willow..'
How does she count the days when
her silver pot no longer has its shine?
She counts all as death in the terrible
truth she'd lost one of a kind.
