This is a poem I wrote after my first love died in April. |
Until We Meet Again I will never go to visit your grave I know you are not there Your grave would never talk to me it contains only a shell. I'll look for you in soft warm rain, in grass that grows so green. In trees with leaves and blossoms lush in flowers that bloom in spring In summer heat that turns grass brown, in thunderstorms so fierce. in sunsets that glow red and orange in sunrises promising a new day of peace. When fall comes and leaves turn gold and red. I'll hear you in the autumn wind that blows across the land. In winter I will be so sad the wind is harsh and cold. but I hope that I will see you in the clouds and in the snow. I pray when my life on earth is done and I leave this vessel behind. That I will see you again on the other side And together we will ride. The wind of thunderstorms and rain, to reach the stars above. and watch the sun set below the sea and watch the ones we love. I want you to know that I loved you the way only a first love can be With fire and passion and smiles and tears And devotion so complete. We did not last, that makes me sad, we were not meant to be, But you kept a huge piece of my heart and you took it to your grave. I hope you greet me when I cross that river that runs through the veil. At least to say you are glad I finally made it there. Please know that I will never forget you I will never put you away I will keep your memory deep in my heart And hope to see you again some day. I know you are still around in many different ways And you will let us know when you come all we have to do is believe. Please know I would have followed you to the ends of the earth. We would have destroyed each other, but the ride would have been worth it. So as you travel through your new world, please take care to remember me. I hope I will see you again soon in the sunsets and storms on the sea. ajmoss |
