Sweet Virginia
I always wanted you,
but so long have I walked in disbelief
thinking you would not have me.
Sweet Virgina,
I fell in love with you,
and rivers sprang from the tears
that I have cried.
Sweet Virginia,
why did I have to see you,
walking side by side with that man
the one who never had a clue
to who you were;
& in the meantime,
I went & live my life,
and left the saddened sorrow
for another blue tomorrow.
Sweet Virginia,
what did I ever do
to get this awful wanting
& to think there was not anything
that I could do...
that I could do...

Nice...very nice...
Thats the title of an old Rolling Stones song...
....Sweet Virginia....
To be haunted by want,
it never lets up.
This really brings home that feeling.
There was an honest longing that could be felt. Second stanza was particularly poetic. Beautiful.
Great job.
MANY BLESSINGS BROTHER,
LOWELL POE
