loss and pain, after
the event is autumns past
all you are supposed to forget
Life is long the years
putting a new touch on
old events and forgotten things
we would rather not forget
Life is what we say it
is in the sun of summer
beyond the cold of winter
beyond those endless nights
You and I parted years
ago in another autumn
when the leaves fell onto
the quiet streets and as
The sun wanes the years go
by and leave me in
quiet October days
wondering where you have gone- Autumn, 2006

I wrote something in a similiar vain called "Frozen Summer". There is another poetry thread. You should post this poem in it. It is very nice and I have felt the same way....life can go on about us, and yet we hardly notice when our hearts are somewhere else.
"It's so mysterious, the land of tears."
