Love beyond Perception
~~~~~~~~~

Two soul mates part
"nothing lasts forever"
I doubt we'll ever meet again
"I love you
there will be no other"
this parting fills my heart with pain

You heart is drifting
so I release you
a cheerful past can I forget
Though I may wander life in sorrow
my prayers are that your happy yet

Perhaps in time
on a lonely evening
your thoughts will reminisce of me
And wonder if I'm even living
that night I'll think the same of thee

Through this lonesome life I wander
alone with thoughts
of only you
Your memory blinds my sight forever
with love far greater than you knew


When slowly all your friends depart you
those friends you thought
you needed so
Bare in mind the friend you departed
still loves you greater than you know

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks Marie and Sea

The reading of it now sure beats the writing
of it then.

Parting can be such a painful experience.  You captured it beautifully.  Thank God those feelings don't last forever.  Very nice.

Welcome, Rex.

I just wrote a poem on almost exactly the same thing, only it's not nearly as good as this.

Was there once as well, and it's reading nice work as yours that brings back the best memories.

If only love would say goodbye at the same time to each concerned..

Ah the pain is so fresh in this. I remember it well, although my memory does not creep back anymore. There is more unhappy memories then happy ones for me, my happiness lays forward. I hope that yours will as well.
