MEMORIES OF YOU


MEMORIES OF YOU

All those memories of you emerges from the night around me. 
I think about the time you ask me to live with you in  
A everlasting marriage . 
The river mingles its stubborn lament with the sea. 
When this love could never be , 
Deserted like the like a wild wind at dawn. 
It is the hour of departure, oh deserted one! 
The pleasures of love proved to be in valleys of dreams  
Cold flower heads are raining over my heart. 
I will make thee beds of roses and a thousand fragrant 
Of lily's put all over you , 
From you the wings of the song birds rose. 
Without you I didn't hold , 
Foe beauty lives with kindness , 
And love is from heaven above , 
Turbulent drunkenness of love, 
In you everything sank! 
In the childhood of mist my soul,  
winged and wounded of long ago , 
Lost discoverer, in you everything sank! 
Your love I still hold even now that I am old , 
My sorrow in pouring rain of all my pains ,  
Sadness drown my heart . 
I made the wall of shadow draw back, 
beyond desire and act, I walked on. 
All a lone without in by my side . 
How terrible and brief my desire was to you! 
How difficult it was for me to say goodbye to you like this , 
Cemetery of kisses, there is still fire in your tombs, 
Oh the bitten mouth, oh the kissed limbs, 
Blow , Blow you deep dark winds ,  
You stolen my heart again .

To all my readers you may see that their are grammar errors in my old writings, but these writing are from the 90's ,2000's. I truly didn't think anyone was readying my work . so I just started writing out what I felt and made my pains a story and poems . I had re post these poems and stories all over the internet and I keep them also in file so no one can ever say my work is theirs . I have kept my work as they are just for others to see where it was I started my writing at . The pains are so real not even a game ,The life I had lived I would never wish upon no one . I like to say to all who are taking the steps for change in their life congratulations to the new open doors God bless you . You may have seen my photos on the internet and my writings on Poetry.com and poem hunter etc. you may have seen the hate that others have given to me about my work and my beauty of who I am . But as you can see I will never let the haters Stop me from doing what I love . So I say the same to all of you write your own words and let your heart speak to all your readers . I hope you can understand why I haven't made changes in my work at less not the old ones . My old work are left as they are for me to always remember where it all came from . God bless to all who reads . Lilly Emery /Judy Emery
