A honest poem although sobering and
stuffed to the gills with emotion.
Wonderfully done!!! Thank you for
this read and may you blessed be!!!

>Leaving

>Leaning on a prayer
>Eyes tuned to the night
>Stalling my emotions for a time
>The moon casting shadows
>A beacon on the sea
>I waited with impatience for a sign
>
>The wind was blowing softly
>As I walked across the yard
>I could feel something pulling me away
>My hearts beating like a hammer
>My knees feeling weak
>Knowing there was nothing I can say
>
>She was waiting for a story
>One I would not give
>To speak would be to tell a lie
>I could take a chance
>Hide behind the silence
>But I know she will see it in my eye
>
>I feel anger in her presence
>As I walked in through the door
>Coldness as the moment lost its place
>In the night I heard the calling
>Of a long forgotten dream
>The pain surely showing on my face
>
>I'm not shy on feelings
>I knew that I was sad
>Leaving is the sickness in my life
>Never look for compromise
>It always brings me down
>Leaves me lying cold beneath the sun
>
>She was always bound for greatness
>This, I could understand
>There was nothing left to do but walk away
>I took the treasures of her passion
>Headed for the door
>Easier to go, than it is to stay
>
>She was sleeping like an angel
>Hair laying on her face
>I could see she was resting quite content
>So I headed for the desert
>With nothing but my pain
>But it really didn�t matter where I went
>
>Now the fog hangs like a curtain
>On some far and distant shore
>Leaves falling from the trees across the land
>I pray that there�s heaven
>To aid my helpless soul
>A single trail of footprints in the sand
>
