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 me as I dressed

And when I came out to the world

Your body my caress



The grave side service went with please

And after followed sorrow

We all felt your presence there

Our doctrines you to borrow



As I walked in later on

A tear fell fown my cheek

I stumbled over to a chair

My knees felt reallt weak



Toss and turn in bed that night

Dreams faltered in and out

I saw you walking a hall of light

Your name I came to shout



Today is better, I am strong

You are no longer here

But before you left, you whispered close

"I love you my dear"

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.
