Overcome The Pain
I thought I was hurt before
But nothing compares to this
You took my heart and crushed it
Said good-bye with one last kiss
The tears I shed meant nothing
They fell in silent song
The melody I cried for you
Lasted all night long
Today the sun beamed in my room
The wake of a new day fair
And though I lay in bed alone
I knew that you were there
Your arms wrapped 'round me as I stood
You watched as I got ready
And when my hands began to shake
Your memory kept them steady
The grave side service went with please
And after followed sorrow
We all felt your presence there
Your lessons now ours to borrow
As I walked in later on
A tear fell fown my cheek
I stumbled over to a chair
My knees felt really weak
Toss and turn in bed that night
Dreams faltered in and out
I saw you walking a hall of light
I knew exactly what that was about
Today is better, the smallest of hope
I will keep getting stronger
I just wish that I had gotten
To hold you a little longer.
Very nice poem, I was wondering what the story was behind this, then I read your comment. It IS a very touching poem and its beautifull how the inspiration just came to you and transfered itself into these words. Nice.
