Well, might as well start off with a bang, eh? Someone described this as my best ever, and while I'm not quite sure (there are some that I really like better), I agree that it's up there. The inspiration for this one is kind of a funny story: I was watching Family Guy one night (I don't usually, but there was nothing else on), and it was a story about the dog falling in love with an old woman, who dies in the end... It got me thinking back to some of the loves in my life, one of whom died while we were together, and got me writing! Just goes to show you: you never know where inspiration will come from!
A Moment
A moment, an eternity
Passing from this life to the next
Every detail seems to be crystal clear
A heartbeat, a rhythm
Racing to its final end
Putting lie to all our plans of growing old
A teardrop, a torrent
Raining down upon our lives
Praying to a deaf God it's all a dream
A memory, slightly faded
Seems to be all that you left
The years have flown, I have moved on
An eternity, a moment
Watching as you passed
Every detail is still crystal clear
About Me
- DrSketch
- If you've never heard of me before, how did you find your way here? Nevermind, doesn't matter. Everyone calls me Dr Sketch, and I write poetry. Some of it's happy, some of it's sad, not all of it is good, but I try to only put up the best of it on here. I'm not very "regular" about updating, but try to get one or two updates a week done...

You've said that your work and mine share something, which I take as great compliment.
Can I repay that by saying I deeply wish I'd written this one...
Thanks Colin! I remembered how much you and I both liked this one, so I thought maybe it would be the best one to lead off with...
