Can you Hear the Tear

can you hear a tearas it rappels down my facecan you sense the  fearthat's taking place can you feel the painI'm going throughjust trying to stay sanewhile loving you can you hear the smileas it slowly fades awayit was only for awhilecause you no longer say the words I need to hearto nourish my broken heartto dry up my lonely tearand replace the missing part my smile doesn't sound truedoes not shine as brightwithout ... I love youwhen you say good night copyright   5-14-10   huey horton   (hippiepoet69)

I guess I'm a hopeless romantic. When it comes to romance, I'm hopeless. I better get off here. I hear thunder. And waiting for her call back. Wouldn't want to keep her waiting. LOL. I've only been waiting 30 years.Thanks for reading and commenting. Take Care. huey

Thanks Scribbler

No it isn't. I once had a love I though was easy for a year. Until it went to hell in a hand basket in a very short time. This love has never been easy on me. Thanks for reading. I am trying to improve. I am using advise from poets on here to hone my God given talent. I am very much a fan of yours. Take Care. huey

Very nicely written, my friend. Perhaps, if you slow down a tad, things will all fall into place once again. Rappels, should be repels. Sue

Thanks Sue

I was wondering if some one would quiston the word Rappel. It's used in the wrong context. But it's what I wanted. You rappel down the face of a mountain. I am taking it slow in my actions. But my mind gets carried away. She has called me already two times this morning. One as soon as she woke up. And she calls just before she goes to bed. But now thwy are best friend calls. I awaitthose calls. Thanks and Take Care. huey

I don't think I have ever been mad at her. But hurt many times. Newer friends think I'm a patceint person. Old friends knows I'm not near as laid back as I used to be. I guess life takes a toll even on an old laid back hippie. Take Care. huey

I like most of your poetry.

I like most of your poetry. Love some of them. But have never disliked any of your poems. The amount of reads and comments you get comforms your writting ability. They say the pruff is in the pudding. Just keep writting whatever you want. And I and others will keep reading. Thanks for wiping my tear away. I will try to limit them to once in a blue moon. I talked to her for about three hours today. All just small talk. LOL. Thanks. Take Care. huey

Small talk...

It's better than no talk Huey. I talk to my Zak all the time, all I get is two little red eyes looking at me and a long nose touching my nose standing like a 5 inch pola bear, with a brown hood? Rosina xena465

I like my little blonde laying her head on my chest. Looking up at me. With those brown eyes of hers. Then she licks my troubles away. She looks like a german shepard but is only about 18 pounds. Take Care. huey
