Life Love Lost

The poem “Life Love Lost” is about two people who are very intimately linked, but have never meet. They have corresponded as pen-pals for many years with each expressing their undying emotional love.

Life Love Lost

He sees the world growing dark and dim

He knows that his life journey will end

Soon to begin that greatest of journeys

Alone in this as in the next

He sees her eyes of his lost love

The ones he held so dear and could not touch

Distance held them apart

But words could not

He feels the caress of her tender lips

Those that he could but not touch

He feels the warm of her hand in his

That which he could not hold

But she does not feel the fading warm of his

So near and yet so far

Is but the life love lost?

She does hear his parting words

Whispered, trembling and low

I love you, I always will

He drifts away to start

The greatest journey yet

Knowing that one day

The love that life has lost

Will be there

His lost love far away

Sheds a silent tear

For her lost love
