Lilac Lament By: Noah Eaton 7/10/01 I thought I already had lost you You slipped from my hands and out of my life I've never been so scared before I thought our time together was over, there in silence you lie You always give me spring when you are close to me I was a rabbit hopping in euphony on your warren Now I feel the winter breeze sweeping down my spine Afraid I may lose you forever, leaving my heart barren Now you are sobbing in my arms I can feel my heart breaking Your angelic smile is now but a mar My heart is aching And I remember all the romantic times we've had Knowing we were meant to be In your soft eyes of lilac I can see us both together crying... How is it going to be? Oh God, help us be together forever Save her, oh save her please I can feel my lungs begin to shiver I sing a love song to you as I kneel beside your bed I bend down to kiss you and you hold me like a girl and her teddy bear I burst into tears uncontrollably that this may be our last kiss Saddened to think if I'll ever hold you again, as I stroke your hair And I reach my hand into my pocket and pull out a sympathy verse Tears splash the paper as I read it to you And I hold your hand scared, telling her everything will be alright That love bears all, love never fails the true How is it going to be? Oh God, tell me it's not too late Save her, oh save her please Give her the strength I can’t stand to see her like this any longer I can’t wait to hear if she’ll recover I can’t keep myself together, this fate is tearing me apart Help me save her crying heart Oh God, save her please I have fallen to my knees Please don’t leave her heart bleeding in my hands I feel all my pride is disappearing I watch the doctors pull you away And you scream from the top of your throat Like I was a soldier going to war today That you will always love me and you will never let go Through your tears you pray for convalescence And I hand a lilac to the doctor, asking to put it in her vase by her bed Praying that it will blossom and our love will go on and flourish And I stare at your photo in my pocket, hoping it won’t be the last time I see you again Please don’t leave me…my love I swear I will never leave you...I will never leave you... Please don't leave me...my love Don't ever forget me, don't ever leave me... |

Oh Noah what a sad poem! (Tears dropping) I hope your love will keep flowing and continue to do so one way or another. Your heart is too beautiful to break, keep it in good care, buddy From your good friend Randy Meador a life lived unexplored is a life not worth living. |

Noah, you sure do tug at the heart strings. I hope this is just inspired poetry and not real life for you. Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write. |

Noah - this is just so sad. I pray for a smile in your heart, not the sadness that you write... BC |

Take care Noah. This was a very sad one. I know it is from months ago, though, so maybe you are feeling happier now. I love the title, very captivating. Sandra |
