Losing

Just a moment, mid-June. When you might have.
Just a word, too soon. When you said.
Just a touch, or a look. I may have;
Believed you
Revered you
Trusted you..

Less a feeling, refracted by other thought.
Less a meaning. No one tells the truth.
Less emotion or depth when I
Believed in you
totally
trusted you.
Eternally.

No help now. Mid-winter, no one here.
No help now. confusion and wonder.
No sense now, searching for....
Meaning in what you said,
you did, you acted,
You went

Well I think Jess gave you

Well I think Jess gave you the corrections that were needed. Take his advice, he's an excellent poet. Welcome to Neopoet, this is an awesome first post! This reminds of how our Canadian winters feel- cold, lonely, and when the people around you become strangers and you either sit and watch the snow fall or leave. Peace~~~~~
