Image result for girl weeping in love

Farewell sweet love, au revoir, Red lips, red as wine stain your cold death stone - I feel a yearning in my soul and a choking in my voice, There is no goodbye in my sad weeping. Sleep in eternal peace love. Godspeed, on your journey, For beyond this life is another called Heaven - Oh, parting is so hard that I will think of it tomorrow, And tomorrow and tomorrow, forever. Adieu, adieu my true love. _______________________ September 28, 2016 Poetry/Verse/Goodbye, My Love Copyright Protected, ID 16-834-147-0 All Rights Reserved. Written under Pseudonym.

Ms. Broken Wings- this is one of the best poems I have read of yours...and I've read a lot and loved all of them. My favorite line is " Red lips, red as wine stain your cold death stone"- oh my, stained ruby kisses on the tomb of a loved one. So powerful lady. I loved this and I know so will Nayda. Just beautifully sad..good luck lovely Broken Wings :)-luloo
