Into Forever.

 

 

Into Forever.

 

When you went our half-read book fell
from its rightful bower,

my life deflowered,

now stones clutter fields of meant harvest
and exploded to rubble
death\'s dust chokes our dreams

for joy appears reaped.

 

When I lost you those visions of smiles
morphed to tears of mourning,

my days were undawned,

now blackened light stumbles on paths we
trod and frozen too soon,
passion grows listless and old

for time feels so cold.

 

When you sank out of life\'s reach into
silent sleep\'s vastness

my hope unfastened,

now clouds cover tomorrow\'s past glory
and desire takes back-steps
as though real living has died

for need is denied.

 

With you gone, though goodbyes were
unspoken fused bonds remained,

my courage re-trained,

now rain-bruised with heart-strings heavily
soaked, unable to
stave off lament my mind knows 

all is not broken.

 

Love soldiers forward, recharges forces
and avoiding explosives
it will be victorious
for into Forever hope walks 

on and on

and

on.
