Array ( [sid] => 21620 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => DEATH WISH [time] => 2003-08-08 12:25:00 [hometext] => A Death Wish is a promise that you make to the person that is dying. Before my husband died he asked that no one view his body. I kept that promise, and because I did, my mind never fully accepted the fact that he was really dead. [bodytext] => Come hither my love, o'r the sea of the dead.
Awaken me my dear husband.
I sense your presence so near!
Sensuous kisses 'round throat and head.
Love of all Loves,
Please tell me you're not dead!

"I'm here for you my darling.
Embracing you with comforting ams.
Sweet, warm, love lasting charms.
They say that I'm dead,
Let me caress you instead......
I'll hold you so close.
'ner again will you dread!"

"Countless tears I've shed!
Oh, My God, You've got to be dead!
Return Please Return 'ner to come again!
How can you be so cruel?
I gave you up to the sea of the dead.
I was slowly learning how to live with the dread!
Now you're telling me you're here!!"


I'M NO FOOL!!!

"You never once angered me, My Love.
How can I feel anger toward you
to awaken me from this nightmare?
I'll reach toward your side of the bed,My Dear,
I know 'twill be empty.
I know you're not here!"

"But my heart keeps yearning....
I miss you, Oh how I miss you!
Please stop returning......
o'r the sea of the dead.
I've accepted my plight.
Help me give up this fight, My Love!
Relinquish, release.....
After 5 long years, solitude.
Finally peace!

He still returns to me,
but not from o'r the sea of the dead.
My heart still yearns....
yet my mind knows,
There's no longer any dread!

dearest cheri, this is an excellet piece that shows all the emotions and limbo of one left behind, it isnt only because he wasnt viewed hon, its because he left, never to return, except in spirt, i had a vivid dream once where my hubby returned alive to me and when i woke up i was stunned, absolutely in shock, i believe it is a gift to those who have so loved and a part of grief, blessings to you, hugs n' love, nessa

Oh yes! Connie, I totally understand the relevance you conveyed!
You captured all the words so perfectly......
These dreams/experiences are sometimes so incredibly vital to our senses,
but must always come to an end when we call for them to do so in order to move on.
I absolutely loved this piece, thankyou so much for sharing it with me x
Love Lisa x x x
