Only by Death

Uncategorized 1 Minute

Alone, lonely, lost, not found, watching, waiting, craving solid ground.

Quiet, silenced, sounds ever still, seeing, hearing what minds will.

Uneasy, restless, sleepless nights, weeping, wailing, mourning my love, my life.

One man, one woman, I thee wed, splintered, separated, only by death.

Awaken, arise, gentle spirit, troubadours, trumpets, a sojourn transcendent.

Sky, clouds, celestial heavens, crying eyes, spirit rise, soaring high, gone, love of mine.

My poetry lyrics are inspirations, often reflective of witnessed or personal experiences. Writing or reflecting on inspiring moments captures my interpretation, with often a flavor of imagination! An engaged, receptive and mentoring audience is appreciated by Likes & Comments. Captured excerpts of my life's experiences is like a quilt. Life all comes together, including tattered pieces, until one day, the big picture is revealed. Read, Reflect & Remember - Be Inspired!
