From Dreams To Heavens

Raindrops pour and splash across her face
They dance and he kisses with such elegant grace.
Now this may seem like its from a movie scene
But truthfully this is all just a dream
There is no quirky cat and mouse chase
No hot and sweaty midnight embrace

I have given my all and now I've stopped trying
For your affection I will not be vying
Though you most certainly are a snake charmer
I am not just a simpleton farmer
And this load of crap I am not buying
Just because you sit there dramatically sighing

Rolling around on the green grass
Your hands touch and playfully pat my ass
We are young and love lost
We live free, but, at what cost?
I gave you much stubbornness and sass
How did time come so quickly as to pass

You were once mine and mine only lover
We did once play youthfully under our cover
No longer are we in those days when the rain sprinkled
Now we have grown gray, weary, older, and wrinkled
Our love has turned to sorrow as one leaves the other
Only a father is left with a child without a mother

A fairy tale love story told to our grandchildren at night
Is only a story told looking back at what is out of sight
Life moves on too fast for us to catch up
Water doesn't rain, but, drains from a cup
Now at the end, with ourselves we do fight
But tis a lonely and foolish plight

I will love you until forever never ends
And you will love me even if heaven sends
Our lives are not over my loved one, my dear
The new ones are beginning, beginning up here
I have found everyone plus old and new friends
All of the wounds I suffered are gone and I have made amends

Aw that's cute. it's all lovey dovey and bitter sweet. Like even though things are gone eventually things well come back. Not on earth but in heaven. That's what i think this is saying at least.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for actually commenting. I love it when people comment on my stuff. I don't know where this poem came from. Sometimes they tend to just come out of the blue. It started out very sad and upset but then turned something that is depressing into something beautiful. I really appreciate you taking the time to read it and comment.
