All Things Do Change!

Today becomes yesterday

Right now becomes tomorrow

Our embrace becomes a fond memory

Your touch becomes a thing of the past



Where did it all go?

Why did it all change?

Can things never remain the same?

Can we ever go back?



My life is oh so empty

And the only feeling I have left is void

Does anyone else feel this lonely ?

The quiet is deafening



I long to see you

I yearn for your touch

I need to hear your voice

I lust for you



Where are you?

How coud you go?

Don't you want to come back?

Do you miss me?



Yesterday was so long ago

Tomorrow is so far away

Vivid memories of you fill my heart

Yet my soul is enwreated with pain

Jo-anne, You make me feel this pain with these words. You are very gifted to put these feelings down in such a way as to try to give that pain away to some other place. Give it to yesterday and it will be past then. Don't let tomorrow have it to use against you again. Very nice poem!! Linda
