For Eternity By Paul Wilson I held your hand as you slipped away On this journey we all must take My teardrops fell on your cheek My heart began to break I wished I could keep you here with me But knew you wanted to go You were ready for the pain to stop God needed you more than I will ever know You had a smile on your face When I kissed you goodbye I will always love you baby Even after I die One day we will be together again To share memories with each other Eternity will be ours together You, me and your Mother I wish you could tell me How happy you are I wish I could see your smile I wish upon a faraway star Each night I talk to you Just to ease my pain Each day I kiss your photo As I remember how you loved the rain I count the days and weeks Since you passed away I wish with all my heart That you could stay For Eternity Copy Righted 1-21-2020 ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul [This message has been edited by Paul Wilson (01-22-2020 03:08 PM).] |

You have me in tears here. Eternity is where we are headed, Paul. She just went ahead to make sure it's perfect for you when you get there. And I'm sure it will be. |

Michael & Eric...Sorry to pull at yall's heartstrings, but like it says at the bottom of all my poems " To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you" Thanks so much for caring and your sweet replies. I need to quit writing all these sad poems, but right now they give me comfort...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |

In response to your response, "I need to quit writing . . . sad poems..." Bull Pucky! Sad poems are heart-strings my friend, same as happiness is. Have had enough "loss" myself to know from where you come . . . and your pain is my pain, and I send you warmth and hugs. Just touch these words with your hand and know my spirit is there. j. |

Paul, I don't think you don't need to stop writing sad poems. The poetry is your outlet for emotional release. The overall tone of your poetry will lighten as time passes I am sure. In the meantime though, to not write would be akin to harboring what truly needs to be let out. We don't write what we see, smell, hear or touch...we write what we *feel. |

There is no grief beyond the love of that which death can steal. |
