Forever and a Day

Forever and a day – Ill weep
  		for the loss of you and me
Forever and a day - our all eternity it seems
 this loss of you still seeps

blinded always feeling
-never seeing
She flits from my grasp 
Forever and a day – Ill seek


(Note for contest:I wrote this 15 years when my Mother passed away. Yet some how the She was so much more than the Mother I sought every night in my dreams, She became a prophetic longing that loomed on my every horizon where I longed for home. The place of belonging I sought, the coming home I never found.)
