The Last Lover

Somewhere, she is -----

   calling my name....

   upon a breeze not blown;

My love without her is but a shadow,

   a ghost of things to come....

   how empty this vessel

   which could be a vessel of love entire -----

To walk with her upon the thread of eternity,

   and stop and sit midst her glory,

   for the rest of heaven

   I scarcely shall see,

   but lost in her eyes

   (my soul mate)

Only one man shall dream -----

I shall hear from her what no man has heard:

" You shall be the last...."

Seeing such a future takes a keen mind, romantic heart and magnificent imagination! Having all three is a gift from God methinks.. You did very well, very well...

"You shall be the last" is one heartwarming assurance! You are a passionate lover and she is lucky!

Thanks whispers, but unfortunately I do not know who she is as of yet! Now and then I write a tribute to her, one day I'll whisper my poems to her perched upon a cloud in heaven, and we'll observe the glory and love of life....
