Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
"A Song of Despair" by Pablo Neruda!. Very famous!.

Tonight I can write the saddest lines!.

Write for example, 'The night is shattered
and the blue stars shiver in the distance!.'

The night wind revolves in the sky and sings!.

Tonight I can write the saddest lines!.
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too!.

Through nights like this one I held her in my arms!.
I kissed her again and again under the endless sky!.

She loved me, sometimes I loved her too!.
How could one not have loved her great still eyes!.

Tonight I can write the saddest lines!.
To think that I do not have her!. To feel that I have lost her!.

To hear immense night, still more immense without her!.
And the verse falls to the soul like dew to a pasture!.

What does it matter that my love could not keep her!.
The night is shattered and she is not with me!.

This is all!. In the distance someone is singing!. In the distance!.
My soul is not satisfied that it has lost her!.

My sight searches for her as though to go to her!.
My heart looks for her, and she is not with me!.

The same night whitening the same trees!.
We, of that time, are no longer the same!.

I no longer love her, that's certain, but how I loved her!.
My voice tried to find the wind to touch her hearing!.

Another's!. She will be another's!. Like my kisses before!.
Her voice!. Her bright body!. Her infinite eyes!.

I no longer love her, that's certain, but maybe I love her!.
Love is short, forgetting is so long!.

Because through nights like this one I held her in my arms
my soul is not satisfied that it has lost her!.

Though this be the last pain that she makes me suffer
and these the last verses that I write for her!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Footprints in the sand

One night I dreamed a dream!.
I was walking along the beach with my Lord!. Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life!. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, one belonging to me and one to my Lord!.

When the last scene of my life shot before me I looked back at the footprints in the sand!. There was only one set of footprints!. I realized that this was at the lowest and saddest times of my life!. This always bothered me and I questioned the Lord about my dilemma!.

"Lord, You told me when I decided to follow You, You would walk and talk with me all the way!. But I'm aware that during the most troublesome times of my life there is only one set of footprints!. I just don't understand why, when I need You most, You leave me!."

He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you, never, ever, during your trials and testings!. When you saw only one set of footprints, It was then that I carried you!."


Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest(Matthew 11:28)
