When Angels Sing

"I carry your heart with me(I carry it in my heart) I am never without it"
                                                            Quote by E.E. Cumminnings



My heart will always cry until I die
to pour from pain-filled depth within my soul
I languish in such darkness where I cry
and find a somber world of sadder toll
white doves flutter above my marble pain
where time is haunting before Angels sing
from Heaven filtered light falls through the rain
to cast a shadow from a lone dove's wing
the Angelic light pierces the dusk gray
to softly lay on her name etched in stone
the stone that's my forever yesterday
and holds all of love's memories I own
my loneliness weeps as it knows no peace
empty are the dreams I must still release
