In my own private hell...(PA).

I listen deep in the night
straining to hear a voice that will bring a small piece of light.
Silent now lays your tongue
and I drift into my imagination and memories
of times when I were young
smiling with love filled eyes
and clinging to your apron ties.
I whisper to you deep in the night
longing for your presence to hold me tight
as you did so long ago
and patted my back gently as off to sleep I would go.
I embrace the shadows cold with fright
while I dream of your precious faces shinning bright.
Forever etched in my mind
are the voices of my grandparents so kind.
Oh, sweet death rock them gently
while I linger here and wish for them to be.

{Thinking of my grandparents whom were killed about 5 years ago....Death be gentle for I miss them.}

So much sadness... I feel for you.
