Until We Meet Again

Who will wipe away my many tears, As for my dear love one I now weep Who will be there to help me rest easy While at night I try to fall fast asleep Who will embrace me ever so tightly Or who can ever take your place, Who will say my name like you did Placing a soft smile upon my face Where are you now my sweet flower When I need you most in my life Where is the sound of your laughter That always made each day so right For my eyes grow tired from weeping And my knees are weak from prayer And I cannot let go of what I lost When you were taken away from here For every time the door bell rings Or the telephone announces a call I jump in expectation with a hope That from my life you did not fall And yet still my mind grows weary As I once again try to fall asleep And I can’t let go of your memory When your image my heart still keeps ….until we meet again. Written while watching the events, and seeing the loss of so many on 9/11/11. Dedicated to those who are still dealing with the pain.pain.

A sad poem, well written of the event that shocked the world. I enjoyed the rhyme. Maybe another on a survivor! Blessings, Vivien
