I woke last night and went outside to stare into the deep blue sky to feel the moon shine down from on high to remember the day i heard you had died I thought of you, as I sat on our swing The times we'd laugh together and ran Over the fields and across hot sands when we were younger, carefree, as birds on wing I wished you were there in the darkness just then To hold you close and keep you near To hide you from your darkest fears even for a minute... just to see you again but all i can do is dream of you as the silvery stars float by Warm tears trickle down, I hate when I cry Every time I dream of you, I keep hoping that I've died to I can no longer stand, by myself all alone I'm tired of being so cold No longer wishing to live and grow old My tired heart, slowly turning to stone I wish I'd been there to kiss you good bye, Now i lay hear and dream of you, yearning for the day, you come back from heaven to take me away and together ascend, forever into the sky... One in a sea of millions has the power to change the world... |

Technically, I've posted this one before... just redid it based on my current state of mind. One in a sea of millions has the power to change the world... |

Excellent, it touches the soul Margot Love is something eternal, The aspect may change, But not the essence.- Vincent Van Gogh |

Rdz, I found fascinating honesty in this piece, though I cannot relate to issues of dying to be with one lost. But still appreciated very much the sincerity of this write. Peace... If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
