Belong

Belong

A Poem by Colton Warr

She belongs in the temporary moments of a dream 

Taking me away from my nightmare screams

On my knees for my sins, her love redeems

She has, to this day, been my one and only theme 

She belongs to an unknown planet out in space 

I am crash landing and so I brace

The way back home I never want to retrace

Forever we are to roam the stars, hands interlaced

She belongs in the great blue sky

If up is not the way then I have gone awry

We can lay with the clouds until we die

If her touch is the rain, I never want to be dry

She belongs to the vastness of the ocean

Which ever way her tide pulls, that is my motion

Like to the sand the waters soaks, she is my devotion

I have crashed into her like a wave and I love the commotion

She belongs to all of the wonders of our galaxy

She belongs to all of history’s kings and queens

She belongs to the Angel who plays the harp and sings

She belongs to every golden thing, yet here she is kissing me

Love is the true sweetness of life. Nothing compares.
It is everything...
...in its absence we are nothing except lost, awaiting that gentle rush to overwhelm us once again.
It is life's greatest joy...
...and its greatest pain.
It is as a dichotomy in nature.
I miss her so.

Well done, my friend.
I hope that you find love as true as that of my Karin...
...for then you will have everything.

I could have not said it any better than that, my friend! So beautiful! I can't even begin to imagine or comprehend how it would feel to lose someone as perfect as your wife must have been. And I know she was because she picked a strong and loving man to be with. You will see her again one day and you will get to be with her for all of eternity. I am so grateful that you read this piece!

P.S. It makes my soul happy that my words can remind you of someone who sounds like an angel. Just wanted to thank you for giving me that opportunity. Thank you for your support.

She was the strong one, and she truly was an angel.
But she, like all of us, was flawed and had her struggles.
Life can get very ugly sometimes, and soon I'll try to depict her courage in dealing with it.
Thanks.

Beautiful... I'm impressed by your ability to write about love. I don't find that an easy subject to take on. Thank you!

[Colton Warr]

Thank you very much, my friend! Your words are very kind and encouraging! Love is a tough theme to write about. Perhaps I find it slightly easier because I am madly in love. And I HAVE to write about it. Thank you very much for giving this a read!

Another beautiful tribute to a loved one :) your descriptions -especially at the end - almost sounds as a description of the sun - and I suppose whom eveer you are writing this for is your sun.
