~ True

 

True it is, in all I believe, you are near, you are.

Your voice whispers, in silence, you say so much,

With nothing, but ever so felt, within me.

Your heart still feels; but hidden

 

I hear your footsteps, when you walk to work;

Sometimes I hear you thinking, and I see you write

Your thoughts down on a napkin, for no paper sheet

Is near, and you smell the air of things, you can’t place

 

When you look above, you talk to the birds,

And you make songs in your head, by their melodies.

Your left hand, and fingers, hit the cold iron bars

Of the same fence every day anew

 

You draw art in your mind, by all the little things

And remember, once we painted together

Our visions, of beauty and delicate colors

Like we wrote each other each night

 

True it is, I once so loved you,

Today your thoughts, are far away,

They are a wild stream of waves lost

Within a sea too big, too large…

 

True is the day, of tomorrow’s change;

   “Today on the stroke of Sunlight”.

True you are so near..but yet far away.The disintegration of a relationship is slow... it rots and rots and last what is left is the hollow emotion within.Your words flow so smoothly that my mind does a nice exercise finding those memories.. whoa !! :) what you said was so TRUE.. the last line tells it all ",today in the stroke of sunlight".. you will strive for change. Well done Elisa.

You are an extraordinary poet, Elisa...the photograph gave this such an ethereal touch, then to be greeted by the eloquence of your verses...

"True it is, I once so loved you,
Today your thoughts, are far away,
They are a wild stream of waves lost
Within a sea too big, too large…"

No other compares!

sometimes silences speaks more than spoken words... but when those silent moments channel into words, it overflows in motions of our deepest emotions... how art create life and breathes the very essence of our being, as if it is a part of us, living for us. Also, this piece shows how love and distance create a special memory to remember, shows that love even distance apart, it is still there, even a fragment of a memory to cherish is all enough for us to grow fond of the memory and be strong for the current life we live in. You say such beautiful words big sis, I simply love this piece!

Wow Elisa, another powerful poem, it is so breathtakingly heartbreaking… I hope that makes sense… Losing a loved one is never easy and those great memories can be bittersweet.

Thank you very much for your heartfelt words my friend...

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

My pleasure my dear friend.

This person you speak seems to be connected and very well in-tuned. The ending is sad as let go kind of ending goes but the thoughts and energy is well heard and received. I myself love the cold iron bars reference. It gives much feeling and understanding here. Beautiful poem my dear, dear friend.

Thank you my dear friend, for the beautiful words towards this write of me...
