Joined once againA Poem by V.J.C.
Here I sit by growing grass still trying to hide what lay beneath
Tears blind me from seeing but sight is not what i want Pain appears to have taken hold of my aching heart as i stare at the ground Wetness trails down my wrinkled face showing the world my hurt Aged hands are folded neatly on my lap that is holding a single rose A simple thing it must be but it holds so many memories Of better times that have past when love was in full bloom Broken hearts being repaired and tender kisses passed secretly in the night So silly things had seemed back then when we had been so young Hopes and dreams our only concerns that we gave heed Now it seems we should have considered the other things Time has ran out and here i sit next to you but the farthest i have ever been Noises from behind me have me lifting my heavy head So tall and grown they now are and a smile lifts my lips At least one thing we had done right in our lives together May not have been the easiest thing to do but my love had always welcomed a challenge Tears run down their faces as well because they knew him too Strong and sure he had been and always knew what to say So here we sit in the mornings silence with memories to pass the time Strong hands encircle mine with warmth and comfort Lonely for so long and but i never thought for a moment you wouldn't return You smile at me as i look up at you with a smile in return Love shines brightly in your eyes with a hint humor that always made me laugh The kindness you never cease to give show in the way you kiss me on my head Too long we have been apart and finally we are joined once again © 2012 V.J.C. |
