Today Couldnt End Poem by Eddie Rodgers

Today as I awoke and my eyes were blessed with the site of beautiful your face, it was at this moment this time I knew in my heart I had for once in life found and inhabited my special place, that no matter what this day, just could not up and leave and slip away. So I talked to it and let it know that I refuse to stand by and watch as the hours pass knowing in my heart that you will have to go, so lets try to make amends, I promise to be here forever if you can promise me that you will never end. Day looked me in the face and said this is something I have never been able to do before, that your asking for a key to a eternally locked door. So I continued and pressed on, and let it know that seeing it end would be seeing my love dry and vanish with the sun until it was seemingly lost forgotten and gone. I then looked at the face of my sleeping love, and did what I had never done a day before in my life and that’s pray to skies above. Lord please hear this prayer, open up your heart as I have mine and just don’t take away the one and only thing that I actually shown feelings for and care, for if so my life can only inherit blinding dark despair. Upon midnight walks and seeing the fullness of the moon I wish to never once again be blinded by another cascading day of gloomy doom, for I have come to learn, to show my feelings and my hearts deepest and most desperate concern, so please as surely as my love does lie, don’t cast down upon me the notice of the love of mine you will come to crucify, but if so I shall weep, of the memories we might have had if you so solemnly did let me keep. I remember the tears running down my cheeks, bound to this emotion my heart was the only part of me that could possibly speak. Day came to me once again and asked sir cant you find another to love tomorrow? my head dropped and I mumbled I surely cant but if you shall go please also take me away from another days hurtful sorrow. For I can not miss to kiss and hope to use what my heart will most certainly come to refuse. I would rather forever walk alone, and hope to reach a place of where my heart of love may have flown, that’s if it wasn’t taken away upon the passing of this day. Day stared at me and it was at this moment that I noticed a tear, and it said im sorry but this is just something you have to hear. It has never been up to me to make this choice, that my son was a decision made long ago by a higher voice, but what you don’t understand is that like you by God I am only viewed as a man, I too have wondered if I could stay but in doing so does that mean that all the beauties and wonders in the world shall up and go away, that’s why the world has been given a name for each day for I have looked in your eyes and seen a different and special type of love, something so remarkable as the lone flight of a dove, I too have missed what I have been never able to kiss, but this is not a matter of yours or mine this my son has to do with the suspension and the tale of time. That love that you now share, isn’t something that just came for it has always been there, to not to believe in it is to stop loves flow, and therefore keeping it from ever being able to blossom and grow. Now kiss your love upon her cheek, for at the end of this day, hopefully your heart will have had enough time to speak, and forever she shall go away.
