[hometext] => All suggestions are much appreciated, especially ones for a better beginning. This is a rewrite of a previous poem.
[bodytext] => Darkness Came upon you. You kissed him and you said "good-bye". Your eyes told his tale until it was lost In the lives of so many others. I held your hand. There is no glory here. You smiled As the waves broke, Bowed, to kiss your feet. The sand''s burning touch only warmed your spirits. A voice said "hello," And you saw me there. There is no meaning here. The snowball stung Your peaceful cheek And the dripping cold sent shivers of glee Past your shoulder. Your fingers warmed at thoughts of Fires and Chocolate, Yet we stayed outside. There is no triumph here. I gazed upon the lips Through which all of your words must pass. As I looked up to meet your relentless eyes, You already had an answer to my question. You could not quite say, "Here, there is no triumph, No meaning. Of course there is no glory here, It wouldn''t fit." So you smile And simply say, "This is where the music belongs" [comments] => 1 [counter] => 284 [topic] => 16 [informant] => high_on_duct_tape [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FriendshipPoetry )
