Flowers of another Time

She looks down upon me

As the universe weighs down on me

Within her peace I am set free

Show me how to live

My angel, your guidance your sun, is the only light I see

My twin soul I live for two on this earth

Every road I turn

To make you proud

Every decision I make only to see you

Walk this path with me

The flowers of another time remain

Photos of a life we have lost

No loss greater than the touch of your hand

The sound of your voice to calm my way

My twin, when I feel your presence

This emptiness somehow fades

I will not say goodbye

Nor will I give in to the feeling

That I may not make it without you

From the day you came in to this world

You were by my side

In every dream you remain

One blood, one love, one life

    Hmmm. I’m not sure about this. The emotion is good in this. If I can interpret it literally, you were a twin and your other “self” died. If this is the case, it is well spelled out. However, the words and images are common, they’ve been used many times. Coming up with some more descriptive phrases that are not “trite” would help. If you did not maen this as a rhyming poem, then the rhymes in the first 5 lines throw the concept off. You end the first two lines with the same words and it is awkward. The puctuation is also somewhat off. Please do not take offense. I am trying to give constructive criticism.

    Thats for the constructive feedback, yes I am a twin and will always be despite the fact she has passed on. To me poetry is the flow of words is as it comes from the heart and I do not edit to the extent that I lose that which has come natural to me. I do plan to learn the craft of creative writing as I share with you all so thanks again for your comment. C
