Reaching out from this lifeless state going through the motions of every day life, though you are gone from my arms I still hold you in my mind. My dreams are filled with the comforts you once offered and it makes waking each morning a horrible task. I don't know what set this wheel in motion this horrible injustice that has taken away a love that could have given the most ardent of loves a scare. I can't say what thoughts you had that made you make the decisions that you have and I suppose that really isn't important now. What is important is the fact that I just can't let you go. I can't get your vision out of my mind. Every avenue of my life was changed the day I met you. You know, all my life I never thought my dreams would come true, but they did, I found my dreams in you. And then they were shattered. So, what do I do now? How do I go on without you when it seems I have just now found you? You are everything I have ever hoped for and everything I'll ever need. Right by your side is all I ever want to be. I know no other way to express the pain I feel than by saying this... I love you and I shall always, and even if I never get to feel your touch again I will always hold you in my dreams. "Don't wish upon a star...Reach for one!!"

I felt angst in this. I was listening to U2 as I read this "Grace" ....'Grace finds beauty, in everything.' Though it was very sadd to read, I found great beauty in this poem. I hope all goes well for you, and that love stops at your door again. |
