Quiet My Dreams

I dream of making love to her.
I stand tall in front of her tomb,
My heart churns up a lively stir,
I cannot help but feel the gloom.

I smell roses strewn all over.
I dream of making love to her.
I have lost all my composure.
Must all these painful dreams recur?

I stare and stare but it's a blur, 
Her loss is great as it should be.
I dream of making love to her.
Seems that I'm tied, never be free.

Whispers from trees I try to shut.
Wish she were here. How I prefer!
Useless, for all life, must end, but
I dream of making love to her.

Your longing for your missing mate is palpable in every line you have penned ! God united you two in love. Even after death you are in love with her! Let it go on.... not as an ache but as pure joy !

wow, I LOVE this one. It is actually a special kind of quatrain known as Quatern. I love using this form. You should try it more often, victor.

I marvel at your fearless honesty. I lost someone very dear to me once, and nearly went dead myself with grief. Would drive in my car, imaging her alive, singing the love songs we shared. She came to me in a dream, I seized hold knowing or else she would vanish upon my awakening. An angel shouted at me from a dark corner of the room: "You must let go, you must let go!" I realized that I had to, for my grief was keeping her close to the earth, preventing her blessed ascension.
