Forever Lasting Love

I feel you in my very soul
This springtime misty eve,
The coolness of the evening air
My spirit does relieve.

I turn my face upwards to the sky
To the softest shower of rain
And taste the kiss of the sweet cool drops
As they ease away my pain.

The gentle breeze sent over me
By silent brother wind
Dances across my rain soaked face
And caresses my tired skin.

"My love," I whisper in the wind
Hoping that you will hear
For I think of you every single moment
Though I know you are not here.

And though you were taken from me
I will never forget your love;
My love for you is deeper than the deepest sea,
Higher than the heavens above.

So though you had to leave too soon,
I pray you will understand
Until I again will be with you
Here with my forever lasting love I stand.

Terry Woodson

Cool poem, it touched my heart, love does last forever, but only when it's true, and you can't let anything stand in your way . I will try and read some more of your poetry, it is very good .


 With poetry as your weapon - express your iner feelings so all may carry your sorrow, united as one .

Thanks, Guys!  
  This one was dedicated to a friend I lost about 8 years ago (while we were in high school). One of my dearest friends, she was hit by a drunk driver one afternoon after school. So if you are looking down, Ronda, I still miss you!

And though you were taken from me
I will never forget your love;
My love for you is deeper than the deepest sea,
Higher than the heavens above.

this poem is amazing and touches me deeply...
very beautifully written with your devotion and heart.
a perfect tribute.
take care, jm

 Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules
Do you care what is thought by others about you
If this day is all that is promised to you
Do you live for the present, the future the past...
