Hour of Darkness

Hour of Darkness

A Poem by Jeff

In this hour of darkness


My mind wanders to painless days


It seeks out joys and comforts


From the days of past lovers


Here I see her face


Like it was here yesterday


Her beautiful eyes shining bright


Inviting smile lighting up my days


Her lips blessing me with phantom kisses


This is all in my mind though


I haven't seen her years


I haven't thought of her in years


Now in my hour of darkness


She rises from the depths of my mind


To ease the loss of my true love

What a depth of experience.. one life can reach so powerfully into us. Here you reflect back on her love, and your life now is somehow still enriched, even in the darkness. Amazing connections.

we feel a disappointment here... almost a melancholy... lovely.
