Eternity Poem by wardha jawdat

Eternity

Rating: 2.7


I think of you
And I want to liken your memory
To something beautiful.
It seems your almost ethereal beauty,
Your unattainable, yet magnetic appeal,
Your angelic, gentle, care-lined countenance:
So full of promises I know I can never see
Fulfilled…
Are most like
The haunting awe-inspiring magnificence
Of a treasure ship
Lost at sea.

I dream of you often;
Floating mesmerized …
An orb around your
Shadowy presence.

Even in my dreams, my darling,
I never quiet reach you
Feel you, touch you…
The reverence runs deep
Even in my subconscious.


You are indeed my unreliquished
Love;
And yet
I am unable to accept
The hopelessness
That is my truth:
My desires: traitors
Unto me
Loyalty sworn to your memory

I never visit your grave my love
I do not believe you stay there.
I cannot bring myself to accept
Sand and stone as your memento

I shall let my senses forever seek
Your imagery in heavens
Skies, forests..the seas
For be as it may in death
As it were in life between
You and me:
Forever my love you I shall seek
Forever un till
Eternity
