This is my version of a poem inspired by Christie Lund Coles. I wrote this in 1975.
I Leave You
I leave you
as moonlight leaves the waters face;
as windows forsake the fragile willows brief embrace.
I leave you
as autumn molts into gold;
with all the things we meant to say
still untold.
I leave you
as the stars leave the nights embrace;
as the sun shines on a new face.
I leave you
as the melted snows trickle to a stream;
as a child awakes from his dreams.
I leave you
only to find,
I love you even more.

its deep in my heart, it cuts as i always feel the same way when i intend to depart from him...
its painful and sad...^_^ and it rocks,...
you are a wonderful person, nice work... your talent must be heard, i have some too, but i cant put it here for the publicity will lead to plagirism.. and my boss will not be happy if i share it.. haha..
we have special talents.. and i wish you had more to share, of your deep mystery and goodness... take care..

Do you think I should not post my poetry here because of plagirism? I would hste to find my words in someone else book. I have always wanted to be published but do not know how to go about it. i would love to read some of yours. I love how poetry makes me feel.
