There Will Come A Time There will come a time soon for me It will come too near, much too quickly The sun won’t look any different for you But I’ll see it shaded in darkest blue The sea will still rush to meet the shore The sky will still be as it was before No one whose soul isn’t aching like this Will know the pain of losing love’s kiss There will come a time I know it nears When my soul will be awash with tears I’ll try to hold them back but I’ll fail And my soul against the fates will rail I know time can’t slow its pace for me That the sands of time will flow free If only I could capture its fluid flow I’d hold it still and I’d never let go There will come a time I know it I When my soul shall utter sorrow’s cry I’ll feel too soon the last of your touch While my eyes mist with the pain of such I know nothing can halt its frantic pace Time doesn’t slow and it doesn’t race It moves at the same rate for eternity And I can’t make it do tricks for me The final farewell, the very last kiss There will come a time for such as this Marsha Breathe through the heat of our desire |

Your last two lines wrap this lovely, neatly... a sad write, but then, we have to have both in our worlds, do we not? Hugging you for this, my dear. |

I sometimes wonder which is worse... to have sorrow surprise us and leave us aching with words unsaid and deeds undone... or to have it hovering, reminding us daily of the dark times we face. There just isn't an easy way or a good time to have our world fall apart. This is aching excellence, dear friend. |

I’ll feel too soon the last of your touch While my eyes mist with the pain of such I know nothing can halt its frantic pace Time doesn’t slow and it doesn’t race It moves at the same rate for eternity And I can’t make it do tricks for me The final farewell, the very last kiss There will come a time for such as this sad but so beautifully written...

Oh, Marsha dearest heart, this is so very touching and causes me to tear up. My thoughts are with you. Chris "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |

This time comes for all of us I think. I'm sure that wouldn't be comforting right now though. sad and honest writing here "My ears have not yet drunk a hundred words |

oh wow, your words brush lightly through my soul~ i interpreted this as the sadness of a last kiss before a loved one dies... just know that death does not seperate us forever, and the moment will come for us to be with our friends, lovers, children, family and partners again... nonetheless, sorrow appears to be an important element in our human experience... the ache you have expressed here is as much vital to our strength as it is painful... just continue to linger in the beauty of your dreams, my poetess friend.. our dreams will soon come. light, love, and blessings, manisha |
