So here we float
All along these days colored alone
Facts of feelings never told
Have I been a ghost?
Unknown?
Tortured in cold.
Here I watch unanswered prayers fall
In a disappointing call
Weakness devours this crawl.
Though I wander through ways
Tossing up misled days
With colors black and gray
Most dreams we chase
So close, but still out of reach
Lessons that I learned, now who do I teach?
Unspoken words that never meet
Unwanted welcomes we find to greet.
As I wash away all pain
Restrain
This wonderful blame
Into a beautiful change.
Floating not so desperately
Relentlessly
Approaching
A grounding
Moments that slipped away gracefully
I’m sorry.
How can we control all we find?
Who holds the End of the Line?
As we all toss about in this Wind called Life
Keeping ourselves from faltering through Clouds of Pride
While some fly, some forever fall in this Tornado Soul
I know
There has to be something more inside
So, please, don’t cry
I promise, hold me tighter, take a deep breath then sigh
We’ll be free of these winds, somewhere in time
Although I think I’ve found that I’m in love with this painful, yet blissful ride.

========================

this is a very cool poem...
this is an impressive write...
the imagery and cadence are superb...
and the emotions ache off the page.
a bittersweet express of loss, longing and love.
very well done!!

slow burn ...
light a candle for our love
So that we will always be
one on one in lovely love

Very nice.  You won't miss for too long, I don't think.
