Living With A Memory ~ A Face In My Dreams

 

 

 

Living with your memory… 

Is like a harmonious musical melody in a rich mellifluous voice

created by cool, feathery breezes

Like soft flowing blue waters reaching across calm ocean waves

Like fingertips…

Softly brushing tiny wisps of hair from my face

Emotions take me on a nostalgic journey

As I listen to you singing in soft honey coloured' moonlite'

 

I thought I saw you pass…

As the waves rippled and rolled into the shore

I thought I smelled your scent ~

In the fragrance of the flowers in the air

As I stand here  I wonder ~ can you hear my heart

As you walk thru' my memories and thoughts 

The thoughts of you haunt me night and day

Like riding on the wings of clouds

Elusive thoughts fill my soul...

As I clutch my vision of you to my aching breast

Leaving me with a  burning seed of fire 

 

Oh how I long for your return ~ 

  How I wish I knew who you were 

A face not so clear but oh so very near...

As I walk beside you in my dreams

Beautiful. Standing at the edge of earth, sea and sky, surely such words, silent though they be, will be heard.

Thank you so much Sam for stopping by and reviewing my poem with your kind comments

i imagine that if i some day lose a spouse this poem would bring me to tears but also give me peace. I think the choice of words were excellent throughout the entirety of the poem. it was just really brilliant and felt so real... lost for words... really seemed professional
