Take my hand awhile and hold it tightly now,
before you walk away just one more time.
Feel the love within my palm flow through your body,
remembering darling that you once were mine.
Look to my eyes reflection and see only you,
for you are all I am and shall ever be.
Take with you my love for no-one else can hold,
the memory of the nights you spent with me.
Yet times and people change not ever knowing why,
what once was so becomes an also ran.
Loves fleeting moments grasped will live eternally,
In the archives of another lovers hand.

I liked this poem a lot. You can feel the emotion. I partiularly liked 'for you are all I am and shall ever be.' I very nearly cried. I also liked the background i feel it goes well.

Parting,
is such sweet sorrow. I am lucky not to have gone through this but I'm sure there's not much sweet about it and I bet it's sheer agony.
A sad poem but wonderfully done GTx -

Beautiful Sentiments, Poet!!!
I really love this fresh perspective your poem lends to the tenderness of true love, as well as the bittersweet feelings of pain through the inevitable changes we all face in those life-altering mysterious ways of the universe... Thank you for sharing your lovely, heart-and-soul-felt poem with us!!!
