Poetry
Never Again
By brook_rivers
17 May 2006

I may never kiss your soft lips again
Or hear your delicious voice calling me
 

I will be blind to your bright smile
Ignorant of your unique scent
 

Void of your body’s warmth
Unable to link my hand through yours
 

I won’t see your Familiar face gazing at mine
Laugh with you, dance with you, cry with you
 

I may never, ever, see you again

I have noticed a theme of loss in some of your recent posts and I think this one expresses it best. It is succint and powerful and there is so much emotion in there and that last line made me flinch.
I immensely enjoy this poem

I think it's something that has appeared not because It was planned but just because heart willed to express everything it had within. Am I right?  
I've identified my feelings here, and I think you must really write good if someone else can sense his life while reading. Everyone-his own life, and for you - these are your heartstrings. I truly think this poem is wonderful. :)

Thank you both for your comments. 
 
Yes Nance you are right, to be honest I have never written poetry about my thoughts/life before and now I am the words just keep flowing! 
 
Interestingly in the few that I have written over the past week I thought that this was the least poetic but it has generated the most positive reviews!  
Thanks again for taking the time to comment
