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
