I Will Wait...............(A poem)
 

I Will Wait............


I have placed your picture by my bedside.
You are the first thing I see upon waking.
I will not hide from this pain.
I will face it head on, just as you taught me.

You are the last thing I see at night.
Your smile mocks my grief.
Most nights I cry for all that is lost.
All the hopes, dreams and tomorrows.

I pray to God to see you.
I pleaded, demanded and bartered.
On fallen knees, and wracked with sobs
I begged for just one last hug.

I didn’t think you heard my pleas.
A dream? A mind gone mad with grief?
Upon waking as if in slow motion,
I could still feel you leaving me.

I could still almost feel your touch.
Your scent lingered in the air.
I cried out and reached for you.
Our souls touched once again.

In dream or Spirit you came to me.
It was enough, I could go on.
The grief though deep, did not consume me.
Now, I could wait, I would wait….

When copying here I accidently left out part of the poem, the most moving to me. Thank you all for giving me a safe place to share :hug:

"Life is eternal, and love is immortal, and death is only a horizon; and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight." - Rossiter Worthington Raymond

"I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge - myth is more potent than history - dreams are more powerful than facts - hope always triumphs over experience - laughter is the cure for grief - love is stronger than death”
Robert Fulghum quotes

A reminder to myself.................. :smileypray:


I am so mad at Dad tonight... I found myself yelling to the sky...
Damn it Dad you should be here!!! We need you!!

I wont do what he did.. but I have to tell you ... the desire to just get in my car and just drive and drive and drive is almost overwhelming!

Nikki, this song expresses it all. This is the ONLY way to get through. I can tell you this from my own experience. You can't control it....give it to Him, and let Him get you through. He will, I promise you. Let go...Let God. I know you know how, and can do it. I believe in you Nikki.
About the desire to drive, I have been there too, done it. Please take care of you, let your emotions play themselves out under His tender loving care. :hug:
