O! I saw an angel in my sleep! Her spirit soul awoken, ‘Tis her light- upon the fleet’s of memories that hath spoken was an heartache long ago now broken, O Thee, with me! Beneath upon the earth- on passion’s breath we longed along the distance the passing touch grew wings and felt away, And in closed eyes we’d dream of us- like blossoming flowers wanting to regrow in different places we could let our hearts show, But wilted they become blackened before death- didn’t I push thee away knowing our time was spend and beauty in thine eyes became that of waterfalls. A loss before the drowning washed away the ache, and numb I felt the longing wished I let thee stay- ’tis better to have lost and loved a laughable assuming lie to heart, to wilt, to be no more than a shadow of it’s former self, And still I would not change the pain for a moments joy- continuing- I see thee now as I saw thee back then an angel still beyond my reach the light of all my love. |

Lee~ Nice to see you ... '’tis better to have lost and loved a laughable assuming lie' I think truer words were never spoken~ Hurts like heck to lose love ... not so sure myself that it's the better of the lot~ *Huglets* ![]() ~*Marge*~ ~*No matter what I search for ... |

One of the aspects of your writing that really appeals to me, is that you write with such pure emotion that I can imagine you actually reciting your heartfelt words. I hear your voice as I imagine it to be. Good to be reading your poetry again! ![]() Linda |
