How you do wish

your "heart had wings"

that you could be

where you want to be

rather than where

you must be

at this moment

how quickly times passes

and yet how slowly

the hours and minutes seem

with so much distance

in between

how much you want

and need that embrace

that touch

to see that love

for whom the flame

in your heart burns

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

 

you brought tears in my eyes!

[celinedionsfan]

Raluca ... thank you!

How you do wish

your "heart had wings"

that you could be

where you want to be

rather than where

you must be

at this moment

how quickly times passes

and yet how slowly

the hours and minutes seem

with so much distance

in between

how much you want

and need that embrace

that touch

to see that love

for whom the flame

in your heart burns

Patty,

 

Thank you so very much for sending this poem to me.

 

Reading your poem, I feel like this:

 

How I do wish

my "heart had wings"

that I could be

where I want to be

rather than where

I must be

at this moment

how quickly times passes

and yet how slowly

the hours and minutes seem

with so much distance

in between

how much I want

and need that embrace

that touch

to see that love

for whom the flame

in my heart burns

 

If my heart had wings, I'd flap even faster than a hummingbird!

[celinedionsfan]

Love bridges

every distance

keeps us as close

as the beats

of our hearts

and yet

there is still

that space

between us

that space

which keeps

me here

wanting so much

to feel

your embrace

you are so much

a part of me

and so like

the air

I breathe

because

at this moment

I can't hold you

any more than

I can hold

the air ...

For some reason I can never write good poems.. read this junk

 

Life Is Beautiful

By: Erika Tran

 

No day should

Be filled with sadness.

Yet,

It happens to all.

I know

Life is precious

Time is precious

Each day counts

Each hour

Each minute

Each second.

I know now that I

Must live every

Day of my life

As if it were

My Last

Because one day

I know it will be.

And I won't have to look

Back on a life

That's been lived terribly

And full of sorrow.

I should,

On my last minute

Of my living breath,

Be able to say

That life is beautiful.

It really is...

[Célinefull]

it's a poem off!

[celinerific]

it's a poem off!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Not quite. I'm just commenting and showing how terrible my poem-writting skills are...

[celinedionsfan]

Writing that flows from the heart and soul is never terrible ... it is deeply personal ... don't judge yourself or compare yourself to others ...

[Célinefull]

'good' is subjective

[celinerific]

Writing that flows from the heart and soul is never terrible ... it is deeply personal ... don't judge yourself or compare yourself to others ...

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

I'm not really comparing myself to others. I just don't think it makes sense....

[celinedionsfan]

Why doesn't it make sense ... it's how you feel ... how you hope to live your life ...

[celinerific]

I guess that's true.
