Hail

A poem truly about love.

Hail. 

You sink into eternity 

Telling me which way to turn. 

I know where you slipped away, 

Beneath that autumn night's sky

Singing the poems I wrote you.

It was a haunting night that I recall,

I caught you lingering in your night gown,

Sobbing in your sleep. 

The visions still seep in to this day,

I laid you down and tried to take the pain away, 

You screamed at me to leave,

But you knew I had to stay.

All that memory was has now become a portrait,

Hanging on a dark wall in the back of my mind. 

So many unspoken words are strung up,

I wish I could tell you how I really feel.

I wish I wasn't too afraid. 

That bittersweet night was your last, 

But it was the first time I felt what was right. 

Ever since then I was searching,

For a sign of something, 

Maybe Its all just some kind of illusion.

One that nobody really figures out.

But the one thing I do know

Is that I dreamt so long about you, 

On this deep blue bridge,

So far away..

Love this... Wonderfully melancholy.

This was beautiful. You have a real talent for weaving very strong emotion into your work.
