The letting go (I hope she's good)

You've searched for love and ran through me.
I couldn't fill you as I should.
You moved ahead; I guess that we
Would never come to any good.

You've chosen her. She suits you well,
If anyone can suit you right!
And now, she rings your wedding bell
That crushes down my sleepless night.

So, you have ended up your quest
And found your heart a golden key.
I really hope she is the best
Of all the rest, including me.

It cuts me to my bone to see
The way you kiss her in the rain,
But it is easier for me
To know that she is worth my pain.

The letting go (I hope she's good)

No one can write poems about a broken heart quite like you. You have your own special vocabulary and way of phrasing things. You also know how to end a poem on just the right note. I believe this poem is one of your better ones lately. I think I'll treat myself now and go back to re-read some of your past submissions.

The letting go (I hope she's good)

Love this piece!! So sad, so touching, Dave

Well written

This poem is very well written--the rhyme scheme was consistant, the message got across, it managed to be sad, yet slightly uplifting, and so on. Great job on this piece. I enjoyed it emensley.

Just watch when you went to say 'sleepless night' you wrote "sleppless night."

Poetry--food for the soul.
