I Hear Your Voice I hear your voice telling me to walk on It’s there in the light of the dawn’s new song The whisper of the clouds as they flow by It’s there in the murmur of a soft lullaby I hear you still and my heart beats race Then I think for an instant I see your face But there’s no joy, because you’re not here And down my face slips another iced tear In a room full of people I heard you say Be well my beloved enjoy this day I feel a soft touch and I know that its you And the feelings of love come tumbling through My face flushes and I seek out your hand For a brief moment I do understand But then I remember you’ve gone from me And my soul writhes in anguish bitterly Alone in my room I heard you again You said my darling be free from the pain The tears that I cried dried up instantly As I leapt from my seat to hold you to me I looked all around, searched high and low No sign did I see so the tears again flow Death holds you I’ll not see you again Yet I hear your voice still it eases the pain Your voice I hear still it’s within my soul And I’ll carry it always to keep me whole Marsha Tomorrow is another day I don't know what it holds but I can face the future with courage brave and bold Footprints In My Heart Kethry [This message has been edited by Marsha (02-23-2003 12:39 PM).] |

Marsha, It is true that a love firmly held within a heart--does not disappear, but rather makes memories those that we have loved deeply--tangible, toucheable things. Such as hearing their voice--as your peom so beautifully demonstrated. Thank you very much for sharing this, --Matt Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think. |

Beloved when the world ends and you are rejoined - you will recognise him by his voice, his touch, his essence of love. So glad to see you writing and perhaps beginning to move on.*hearthugs Love you always and for a day beyond Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.

Hello Marsha I can relate so very well to your heartfelt words and know how you must be feeling. It takes such a long time to get over losing someone you loved dearly. Here is a little something for you : "Love is a power too strong to be overcome by anything but flight." "To the world you are someone but to someone you are the world." "We are all angels with only one wing..... we can fly only be embracing each other." Take care my friend Sue I am in motion |
