Love Lost
A poem about coming to terms with loss and sadness

Love lost, sacred slumber;
Dreaming solitary dreams;
In a drift of white thistled nights;
Surrounded by darkness;
Softened only by my own inner light.
Memories tormented;
Played out on a reel, segmented;
Seeing clearly but senses deadened;
Wanting to just swirl there forever;
And not wake up again.
But hope charges in on a grey mantle;
Where words of love are written;
Where all is forgiven;
Where fears become feint whispers in the wind;
No longer hidden.
Love lost, sacred slumber;
Dreams are a gift, a wonder;
A window into the soul;
To see things we need to discover;
No longer forbidden.
