My heart sank
As I watched her go
That familiar pain returned in an instant
And I felt hollow inside
I tried hard to smile
As I waved her off
But my face gave in and crumpled
Eyes welled up with tears
Be brave, be brave
Just until she’s out of sight
Don’t let her see your smile lies
Broken on the welcome mat.
A very sad and a touching poem S.G........SCATTERED THINGS, VERY HARD TO REJOIN...........LIFE IS AN ELEGY..........EVERYTHING ENDS WITH SORROW..........SMILE & CRY......NO DIFFERENCE?
short and painful. nice though i liked it. im sorry if this is a real experience and im also sorry about my spelling. youre good. i am impressed.
very heightened sense of pain and loss is conveyed - nice choice of words. keep it up (:
So touching. This resonates with me. The poet has done a nice work reminding us that some times, we have to encourage ourselves and say 'It is well' even when we clearly know that all is not well. It's a good write.
i love this poem its very emotional.. i would love it if you coulod read my poetry and give your opinion...you seem like a kindred spirit
You explain this feeling so well, I know many men have difficult showing their sadness. It's a shame really because it's OK to share that emotion. Wonderful poem, I enjoyed reading it.--Melvina--

Another good one. Poetry helps with emotions. It helps even men who don't have any. Hxx
