Conversations in the Dark

by Maple Tree   Nov 10, 2012


Why do you tolerate
the loony collaborations
of my spirited humor?

Because I love you...

You realize my clumsiness
will become routine,
and I'll be a walking
nightmare?

I'll pick you up, and smile...

If I whisper goodbye
before you, will you be ok?

No - he shares in a sigh,
because your my wife, my soul mate
and my friend, if you go,
I'll die along with you..

Darling-
I will never leave you,
for we have a love that
is eternal,
just rest by the tree,
and I will wipe your tears
away........

    I dunno whether Im in tears, or my eyes are trying to fool me. This poem is sooooo heartbreaking.
    The idea of the conversation made the emotions flow more, and sadness appeal to the reader more.

    Just great poem:)

    OMG This made me well up, it is so heartbreaking to read, the love you and James have is so strong, its a bond and a love that will never break and it is beautiful.

    This piece was just really honest and heartfelt, and so sad.

    I am speechless.
