Waiting for the night's passage
I tear down my mind
Putting away your sad message
The children are dreaming
As the dog barked a hollow goodbye

I watched you slide out
Silently from the room
You turned slightly and starred
I could not stop you from moving on

The candles at the table had faded
The night outs had disappeared
You knew I would take care of the children
As you stepped out into a new day
As the darkness made way for the sun

I have always loved you
My darling, my shatterred heart aches
As the sun brings on beautiful blue skies
These days I play with the children
Are not the same without you
For we all miss you

I take care of your favourite roses
Bringing one in the room each day
May the sun bring out more blue skies
As I wait for your return
And the smiles on your face
Shining in your beautiful eyes


Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love
(Daniel J D)

'May the sun bring out more blue skies
As I wait for your return
And the smiles on your face

Daniel, such a sad situation, but a beautifully written poem.  Extra **HUGS** for you!
