Array ( [sid] => 54494 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Left Behind [time] => 2004-07-02 08:00:08 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Beyond the silence of a moonlit night,her prayers are carried to the stars
Within her heart,a mournful sound,the longing of dreams afar

Loneliness wraps around her,cloaks her faded withering soul
Held captive by the memories,bound in pain and its control

All around her lie the remnants of a life that she once shared
The spirit he set free, now dies broken in despair

Lifeless eyes without a light,drift across the wooden floor
As she relives the nights they danced to promises of more

By the window on a table,of redwood and fine lace
There stares at her a reminder,another time another place

Back when dreams were young and his love had been her breath
When all they needed was each other and all they knew was happiness

Now she breathes alone,yet it's more an agonising chore
As she looks back through her memories,tears begin to fall

Beyond the silence of a moonlit night,her prayers are carried to the stars
With misty eyes she whispers to him "please take me to where you are" [comments] => 14 [counter] => 313 [topic] => 32 [informant] => LovingWhispers [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 22 [ratings] => 5 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

Beyond the silence of a moonlit night,her prayers are carried to the stars
Within her heart,a mournful sound,the longing of dreams afar

Loneliness wraps around her,cloaks her faded withering soul
Held captive by the memories,bound in pain and its control

All around her lie the remnants of a life that she once shared
The spirit he set free, now dies broken in despair

Lifeless eyes without a light,drift across the wooden floor
As she relives the nights they danced to promises of more

By the window on a table,of redwood and fine lace
There stares at her a reminder,another time another place

Back when dreams were young and his love had been her breath
When all they needed was each other and all they knew was happiness

Now she breathes alone,yet it's more an agonising chore
As she looks back through her memories,tears begin to fall

Beyond the silence of a moonlit night,her prayers are carried to the stars
With misty eyes she whispers to him "please take me to where you are"

God this is so very beautiful...
I'm losing my love right now because I can't measure up to her religious friends...and when I read your beautiful poem, I know exactly how you feel.. I have tears in my eyes right now...at least someone knows how I feel during this crushing time

Sadness carries the tears of loving whispers to the heavens. May you find comfort in their healing powers. Tears heal as do hearts. Find happiness....oneday...once again.
Angel always...joni

I think if he could respond to this he'd tell her something like, "All in due time". I think when they pass on they can understand the grieving but they want us to be happy...here...for now. :)

An excellent beautiful write.

Thank you,

Tim
