Requiem

Peter Gates

Yesterday I awoke to sunshine, warmth and joyful anticipation of lovers finally meeting.

Today it is snowing, it is cold, joyless and tear-filled that there shall never be a greeting,

Shall never be a joyous meeting and rapturous joining of hearts in love, for I am seeing

Only barren, endless, mile-deep glaciers of cold, blue ice atop and burying, concealing

The resting place of my broken heart, my soul, my love, the grave of my life and being.

Death lay me there, place my body top broken heart; epitaph “Here lies life lost meaning.”

There let my dead body lie beneath blue glacier's ice, frozen soul ever and forever dying.
