Rob's Poetry

To you from me...
per your request...should I send three?
So quickly I jot,
three? perhaps not.
Only, for now, one...
for one is more fun.

One heart one soul
two hearts no toll
dreaming love
two turtle dove

Like wings of feather
floating together
drifting slowly
resting lowly

sitting side by side
to love abide
two are one
under the setting sun
 


~ 8l8 ~
As the time slips by and the hours drift away
I come to realize you have gone for the day
In my hopes I wished with each minute gone by
Your name to turn blue but it was only a lie
My heart aches each passing second for you
My mind strays from the tasks ahead too

The hours creep by slowly yet so fast
The clock keeps going no link to the past
Inch by inch the moon passes overhead
The silence explained only as dead
The tears fall freely down
Leaving my face only in a frown

In each passing moment, it hurts my heart
knowing that soon, on a plane I must depart
I miss you with every inch of my soul
For it is you that makes me whole

Every tick of the clock...each passing second of time
My heart bleeds a drop life...each passing tick of time
Till motion is left behind...each slowing minute of time
And all is stopped if only once... each paused moment of time

The clock ticks again slow to fast
Each second shortening by only a bit
leavingbehind  in a blur the past
Each memory dimly lit

Gone is the time when all things mattered
Here is the time with life seeming scattered
What beholds us now may never again be
What beholds us then we may never see
Life stopped in a moment stuck in time
paused, still, holding....until the chime

i hold you in my heart forever
in the only place we can be together

I miss you so much. How I hoped you would be on this evening when I returned. I love you so very much. I fly out tomorrow morning and return Saturday.
