Lament I have come to count my dreams As one by one they slip away I have come to greet the night More warmly than a summer’s day. My feet once danced, but now are still Cobwebs collect upon window sill For I have no wish to see outside My garden wilted, the day you died. Laughter, singing, all memories now I lost you somewhere, some how. And how I’ve screamed and ranted and raved It was you who came and me you saved. And now you’ve gone to God’s own gate Leaving me here to want and wait How long shall I wait to meet again? And how can I be any kind of man? You’ve gone, your dust in on the waves As our wedding song continues to play My heart is ever yours, my sweet And I know that again we will meet. Please wait for me in Heaven love, I will see you fly on the wings of the dove And live my days until the final one As my dreams have gone, my world undone.

Thank you all for your kind words. THis poem was written with my Grandfather in mind, my grandmother had a brain aneurism several years ago and it took her 10 yrs of being a vegatable to die. 3 yrs after she passed on, my grandfather was diagnosed with severe cancer and died within a year or so, as he was going, he opened his heart to my mother about alot of things, one being the love he had for my grandmother but never showed, esp. when she was in the hospital every day of her life for 10 yrs. He has inspired a lot of poetry. (just thought you would like to know the story behind this piece  ) Thank you again. With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free.. dragonpoe |

This really touched me. Extremely well penned, so sorrowful, yet so beautiful at the end. You have some great imagery in this. I am truly sorry to hear of your Grandparent's passing~ Take care, Melissa The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams |

This one hit home. Very good poem. --Marie It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. |
