Poem Title:
Poem
I lay my head down on my pillows, I’m fussy, I have four just for comfort, Three hours later and it’s four o’clock, again I’m unable to sleep, I look at my partner and see her in slumber so sweet, Then I have an idea. I stare at her and smile for I never noticed the way her eyes twitch, I’m intrigued to know more about this creature of utmost beauty and perfection, So I listen to her dreams, she mumbles the name of another man, But I don’t worry for I know of this man, it’s a name we have discussed In previous times, the name I would give to my Son if ever I am blessed With such a gift, But this also brings great sadness to me as well for I know That this is a gift she is not able to bless me with. I watch as the tears role down her face, I hold her in my embrace, Then as I lick the tears from her cheeks, I softly kiss her eyes, As she smiles a smile of Angels she reaches out and holds me tight, I feel her warm breath on my neck and as she breaths heavily in my ear I feel the chills run down my spine and again I watch her sleep. She’s running, not from but to, to what I do not know, I slip into the Image of her mind and I find peace and pain, I want to help, to tell her how much I love her but all I can do is watch for interference is not an option, I see her scream and cry as she witnesses the death and loss of a person Who she holds dearer in her heart than even myself, and with great reason, I cry as I watch her struggle through life with the absents of love, And as I see the use and abuse she has suffered, I fall to my knees and think, After all of this how can I possibly make a difference in her life now? And I cry streams of endless tears. I watch her as she opens her eyes, she knows not of what has a been saw this night, I try to talk as I wipe the tears from my eyes, to say words, to comfort her in some way, She looks towards me and asks the reason for my tears, I tell her not for she has already Endured pain this night, I tell her I had a bad dream, then she gives me a hug, Gently kisses me on the lips an says with the voice of an Angel, “I love you”.
