    I Must Leave Behind

    Like it was my last breath
    Those final words spoken
    Our love has seen the end
    My heart completely broken
    All light has been cast out
    My eyes suddenly blind
    The future was just a dream
    That I must leave behind
    My love for you still endless
    My thoughts are only of you
    The world falls all around me
    Assuredly, I will too
    Actions now the voice I hear
    They truly are louder then words
    What always was “I love you”
    “Never again “ is all that is heard
    All those times of love and passion
    All the words so caring and kind
    Now only come to me in my dreams
    And memories I must leave behind

    the begging is so greatly written so much expressed in the first 4 lines really gives the poem such a saddness but gracefully sad

    err begging was supposed to read beginning sorry I was typing one handed and the keyboard too far away

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
