For weeks I’ve carried the thrust of your departure And through the empty space you once occupied A flow of void and loneliness now shadows the cold A river of blood washes and rinses the prints I’ve longed for for so long, and that I’ve dreamed in my dreams And the water bottoms down below my feet My deepest desires only request your grace -I can’t stand still- But still the hours count by, and the tides shift in the melody of a lullaby The string accompaniment plays the harmony of my nights And shift in resonance with the footsteps of my life I stand in disappointment across the view of liberty As I lay lovesick of my own mortality, my lost senses, and the emptiness that I carry at the weight of the past the lambs still rest easy in their sleep protected by their Sheppard, their conscious are light and full of peace The night creeps, and dawn shines their back Just like this cradle which still rocks with questions The doors have shut and lock in this box of desires I keep at heart And a note written on its top Shielded with a rose of pedals and thorns, and words of faith which strongly read “for Love is God of All” [comments] => 1 [counter] => 170 [topic] => 21 [informant] => Om_Ro [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
