Lost Without You

I'm totally lost in these tears of mine
from the pain of crying over you
after all these years...
every little tear drop experienced that same pain
I'm so empty
I'm but a shell left w/o a soul
my love I surrendered to you to take and keep
I promised you darlin' it would follow your heart
so it would be me alone at night to weep
patiently I hold on to your memory
as I visualize you exit my life
just as i entered into yours
your love captured me
and kept me alive far and beyond
your faithfulness kept me whole
our honesty and trust kept us close
you always tickled my heart
you were my strength
the life i had with you
can never be matched
your boldness
kept me smiling
you were amazing
always kept me pleased and surprised
your love kept me content
on many lonely nights
our passion could light the night on fire
when we became one
now i am so lonely
only embers remain
who will keep me content
and give me the love you gave to me?
your love
kept me dancing and singing
but..my love failed to keep you alive
in this world of mine
my strength was weakened
watching my soul accompany you to your death
you brought me tears of joy when we first meet
now you leave me behind with tears of sorrow
as I help you take your very last breath
I embrace your love close to my heart
as I release mine for you to take
you were all my dreams & wishes that came true
you were the love that found me
you refuse to take my soul
so love can find it's way to me
as you have released me
now I too must set you free......
you i will always love
i'll close my eyes
on a cloudy day
i'll reach out my hand
and i'll touch your love
perhaps as an Angel
someday you will return to me
if not, I'm sure you'll choose
the best one for me...
just as God chose you
i still belong to you and God
i'll remember not to give
the love of my flesh away
if he's not the one
if he's honest with me
then i'll know he's my gift from God
i'll still have that space
for you inside of me

In the bosom of Christ

Miss Terrie, Terrie! Thank you for being a friend...lol! The introduction song on the weekly series, "The Golden Girls"..... The man of your life and your dreams, rests peacefully in God's bosom..... Smiling down on his angel----the one who brought peace, comfort, love, and joy to him----which is none other than the soulful Miss Terrie R! I feel that I'm gonna need a bunch of tissues, after reading a lot of heartfelt, and sad poems....lol.... My eyes are starting to burn, and I'm blinking more than the average person....Great writing on missing someone....
Astounding poem on "Lost Without You"!

Smile,

Meridian

Terrie...

I have read your poems for some time now and I can truly say that in your writing I have seen such growth in the emotion you display. Your poetry is full of such detail and it brings joy to my heart and music to my ears when I read poems like this of yours. Keep up your wonderful talent. Sorry for not commenting the passed couple months...I'm trying to read more of your poetry and comment on it. Keep it up, this was so very very beautiful!! That hedge of protection will help you I know...The path God sets upon you is obviously the right one...So no regrets and/or worries...
