Woo! The first poem for this journal! I wrote a few a couple of days ago and I would like to share them with you all here. So please to enjoy. (lol)
(This one is a bit repetitive...)
-------------------------
When you're gone, My skies are never blue.
When you're gone, My heart is broken in two.
When you're gone, All I think about is you.
When you're gone, Do you think about me too?
When you're gone, I can't stop missing you.
You are my everything... --------------------
Another one now... (This one has a name!)
--------------------
Sorrowful Lesson
The mall was overcrowded, shoppers rushed from store to store; Nobody paid attention, as she crouched there on the floor. She didn't look in trouble, and she didn't seem afraid; Apparently, she stopped to rest, she did not need my aid.
A little girl of eight or nine, and cute as she could be, I wondered, should I stop to ask, if she needs help from me? I wondered is her mother had just left her there alone, I thought, as I walked by her, in my haste to get back home.
As I left the mall, I could not get her off my mind. Did that little girl need help? Was I just acting blind? It bothered me so much, I had to go back to the mall; I had to get this settled once and for all.
The mall began to close, I heard some chain doors comming down, But, as I looked, the little girl was nowhere to be found. Is it my imagination, that again is running wild? Thinking I had lost my chance to help this poor lost child.
I guess she must be fine or she would still be sitting there, I get way too emotional at Christmas time each year. I had tro leave and get back home, where it is safe and warm, The weather forecast that night, a chilling winter storm.
Late that night it happened, as the weather station said, Frigid cold and heavy snow, while I was snug in bed. In the morning, I awoke to winter's nasty caper, The only place i'd go that day was out to get the paper.
Cozy in my kitchen, with my news and cup of tea, But as I saw the front page, it just devastated me. On the frontpage down below, a little headline read, "At the local shopping mall, a little girl found dead."
It was 4 A.M. this morning when police recieved the call, The caller said a little girl was dead behind the mall. It was the chilling elements the brought her close to death, As she lay down, she fell asleep and breathed her final breath.
I could not read the rest of it, as I began to weep, While I slept safe, a little girl had frozen in her sleep. Many years have passed me now, but it still haunts my dreams; Was the little girl they found the same one I had seen?
I can't forget that little girl, no matter how hard I try, But now when someone seems in need, I never pass them by. The lesson I have learned was difficult but true, The last chance that someone may have could very well be you...
