A train
Disappearing into darkness
Leaves one to wonder
If it had ever been there
The mist of darkness
Grows thicker
Around my lost love
As the sound of its whistle
Fades away
Leaving me
in loneliness and wonderment
Her train is leaving
Mine is coming
She moves on--I return
At home now
Reading a book of poems
Written especially to her
A dried, pressed rose falls out
As dead as her love,
Makes one grow to wonder
If either ever lived

I agree with my Regina, a black and white film. A story painted in so many words.
A love story? or a mystery?
Love as it ends, may feel like both... ah the pain, as it knocks you in the head and heart... did I imagine the love I thought we had?.. or was it real and now it ends.. either way it does not matter.

You never fail to amaze me Rich. This is beautiful, artful and perfect. Brilliant work yet again. You are a master of poetic words.
Since I'm finally getting back on track, and getting a bit more time, I decided to boost my commenting ratio, on poems I want to read for once. Like was said before, this really painted a picture in my mind of saying goodbye to somebody very dear to you. Partings are hard, and I don't think there's anything good about them. This was a really great poem, and I couldn't find any grammar flaws and that sort. The flow was great, and I really enjoyed reading this. I always enjoy a good old dark poem... Good work, keep writing!
I saw that, everything that you just said, I saw that, it's amazing, you are a very good painter, you don't understand, and I can't explain, but for real oh my God, I just saw and not just in a picture but like a black and white silent move. I love it, great write, good job, thanks,
