Left Behind

Left Behind

A Poem by Jason Shadows
"

But Not Forgotten.

"
"She Said I Love You. 
 It's Was The Last Thing I Heard.
 As My Glowing Feather Fell.
 She Cried With It In Her Hands.
 
           "It Was Proof"  

 That I Was There With Her.
 Standing Beside The One.
 I Loved The Very Most.
 Hoping She Could See Me.

          "But I Failed"

 Instead On The Way Out.
 I Flew By So The Wind Blew.
 Stopping In Her Footsteps.
 She Turned And Knew.

          "I Was There" 

 As My Feather Fell So Did I.
 In Order To Give Her That.
 I Had To Let Go Of My Soul.
 But At Least She Has Me Again.
 And I Left Behind The Best Part Of Me."

Reminds of a moment a long time ago. When you write something and it brings your reader to "their" moment - you've done something quite remarkable. Well done.

This seems like just a glimpse of a much larger story. Sad... but beautiful. I wrote a story once about an angel and his human and this reminds me of him in a way. Tugs at my heart strings and such.

I Like It So Much... And The Sentences After Each Paragraph Can Be Resumed To Get To The Mane Meaning!

"She turned and knew...I was there."
"And I left behind the best part of me."
^enjoy these two lines a lot. love this message - so relatable and yet not in the cliche form. Live the feeling of emotion you get when you read this poem, especially the tension at "She turned and knew."

thank you.

I found this piece a little cryptic in a poetic kinda of way which made it much more fun to read.
The passing of loving spirits, i like teh representation of the feather im not sure what it is but the images it conjours are beautiful.
