Forevermore

You came to me
in my dreams
and said 
goodbye.

You whispered 
in my ear
how much 
you loved me
now
and 
forever.

It was so real
I woke up
knowing...

that my days 
were to be 
without you
forevermore.

I could no longer 
reach to you
or 
for you.

I could 
no longer
call your name.

You were gone.

What you didn't know
and what I 
could only 
hope for...

is that 
as night fell
and my eyes closed
our souls would meet
in my dreams
every night.

We would play
and laugh
and love
like only we can.

We would be together
in a way
that our earthly selves
could never achieve.

Because of this
beautiful gift
I do not 
mourn you.

Instead, 
I anticipate
our infinite moments
dancing in the twilight
of our love.

Forever ours.

Forevermore.

Some Days For Someday


Some days
I have trouble 

shedding
this layer
of sadness.

Some days
it's too heavy
for me to haul up
and off 
my chest.

Some days
it holds on
with a grip
far stronger 
than my will.

Some days
I'm too weak
to do the work
that's required of me
to strip myself bare
of the burden.

Some days
I just have to accept 
this truth
and surrender myself
to the cruel power
of these 
pains...

and simply 
let them be.

So another someday
won't be the same
as this day.
