You


The subtle innocence of a simple smile
The look in your unknowing eyes.
How I wish I could stand in your place,
Give you everything I’ve already had.
The love of a woman,
The care of a child.
For with each day that passes
I will think of you and everything you have given me.
I have more than love for you
You are my being.
You are the light that has kept my direction.
And in me you shall live forever
For there is no love stronger than ours.
Go forth into the arms of god
For his care is the only other I can trust
Live on in the eternal light
And burn so in my heart forever
No fever so high
No chill so cold
could ever replace the hurt I feel for you
You are the beat in my heart and the blood in my veins
And I will long for you always
Go without pain but with the knowing that I Love You.
You will always be the part that I once had but am missing
I will feel your breath at night and hear your voice whisper to me
That you are there at my side protecting me from the fear of being without you.
There is no just end to my words
For this is an eternal vow
You will live in me forever.

"I will feel your breath at night and hear your voice whisper to me
That you are there at my side protecting me from the fear of being without you."

The bittersweet sting of letting go is sometimes the greatest indication of love. This is very special, as it is clearly written from your heart.

this poem is absolutely breathtaking...
pure poetic perfection
If you posted this here before my tired eyes missed it...
but it is like sunshine on my face today...
amazing words and emotions
unconditional love and dedication
a testimony and tribute to undying love

take care

Quick note:
This was written for a child dying and in need of marrow. The child has had the marrow and Is Alive and doing very well with medication.
Just thought that the Cheerful thought might be well appreciated

Spiked a beautiful poem. very tender.
