I Will Not Be There Poem by Romeo Della Valle
I Will Not Be There
One day you will go back
To one of those familiar places
We used to go frequently
And sit down again on the same bench
That still clearly preserves our names
Encrypted inside a heart
Now, motionless and brokenhearted
Perhaps deeply thinking about me
But I will be not be there
Like before, kissing you passionately
For I have been gone forever
Gone with the wind
As proof, my dear
I left my footprints behind
Deeply hidden in your heart and mind
And the red rose one day you gave me
I threw it in the wild river
Long time ago and by now
It should be already gone for always
You turned my heart into a stone
And gave me no other choice
But to run away from you
And move forward facing the Sun
Where I will find a new horizon
That will lead me to the right one
The one who will love me with great passion
The one now in my dream
But one day will become my reality

Ah- but we cannot return. How sad and yet you have written it so well. Is it not just the way life is and must be else how would we reach that grand concluesion? Read mine - Sonnet Beyond Love - and notice that subtle twist on the eighth line. Adeline
This is so beautifully moving. It reminded me of Pablo Neruda...passion abounding through words. I found myself lost in an old love...the friction...the desire...and, ultimately, the scorn. Very nice imagery. :) I truly enjoyed the read. :) BJ
Another fantastic poem. // footprints in heart and mind//. Wow amazing..and you maintained a beautiful emotion from top to bottom, , ,
Strikingly beautiful, but is this not expected, at this point? Your poetry is legendary, continue on, Monsieur.
I have read through some of your poems and honestly can see the depth in your words. I also read your biography and truth be told, i felt a thing within me. I have read some of the comments that followed your poems and my conclusion is that...some are born before their time and i can say your one of them.. I feel your pain in every word, the truth in your lines and the cut out emotions that follows every dream, every thought expressed here.. Thank u for taking me on this journey with you. Peace and Blessings to you!

Jason Jenny is right, this poem is something cool to read.....The title just attractive and it more fluently utter your emotion, speak all inside the contents...The end just so nice, so that's enough to say this is cool writing Romeo..Keep more and more poems to come_Unwritten Soul
