[bodytext] =>  They say: “Time heals” - and are so very wrong, They counsel: “Do not grieve and mourn so long!” But are so wrong, how very wrong they are, False comfort’s speech can not arrest and bar The pain endured - this knowing : “Never More” Will my beloved enter through this door!  And yet, he enters through it and extends And stretches out to me his shielding hands,- An overwhelming feeling --he is here! With all his being and is drawing near Transcending time and space to comfort me, Lo! - Time is unknown in eternity Time heals - they say,- but who would ever wish A healing that would so impoverish And rob the soul of hallowed marks of pain, Let Love Love's bruises, wounds and scars retain, Feel longing for the loved one deep and great That with hot tears at times the pillows sate Renounce not the stigmata that pertain To loss endured, together with its pain, Don’t heal from loving, rather much prefer The mark imprinted on the soul and bear And wear this mark like a medallion By deprivation and bereavement won. Time has no substance, thus it cannot heal, Time has no pity, and it cannot feel, Nor is there healing in mere Memory, Which only adds to pain's intensity. But share your pain with Jesus our Lord- For He alone can speak the healing word.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
