Time Travel

They say don't stop dreaming
Vain fancy of your return to appease my craving is so overwhelming

Whenever i think of you
Unable to fathom an answer what to do

Seen so much since you departed
Everyone's proclaimation that what happens is for the best

When unable to share
Remember, how you hugged me like a bear

Dissipating the companion of fear
You are far, I know, I keen for you to be near

In accepting your demise they think i was slow
As air egressed my lungs, so stunned by the blow

Regret the void that important day of my life
On becoming someone's wife

Reassured that this is one's nest
Just put your fears to rest

Choosing the right path, thrashed here and flogged there
Searching that miracle might make you return but you were nowhere near

Harvested threats and hordes of wrath making one so cold
Paucity of warm kindred thinking i am so bold

Fate turning tides when discarded by one's ow
But one's brow unallowed to wrinkle with a frown

Time travel one knows is still just a test
But for now dad, for you and me, it looks best

One knows that one's favourite will never come back
Innumerable hours spent by you on me designed a web held strong against the wolf's pack

Enjoyed your style of diction and syntax as well as the "truths" therein. Your use of "keen", however, is not good english. It's not a verb, unless you say "I am keen..." thank you for stopping by to read me. Much success in your writing. / M
