Sweet Bitter Sorrow

Sweet Bitter Sorrow

I wish I could Halt my feelings of Acceptance
Acceptance to the haunting of my Dreams
Dreams that Drive Me Mad with Longing
Longing for what I Want, What Might have Been

This Ache inside my Heart is Fading
Fading from the Memory of You
You that haunts my Dreams so Lovely
Lovely as the Morning Dew

You rest your Head on my Chest in Peace
Peace that I long ago Lost
Lost along with your Presence
Presence of the Highest Cost

The Ache inside my Heart is Fading
Fading from the Memory of You
You that haunts my Dreams so Lovely
Lovely as the Morning Dew

Hollow my Heart Feels Today
Today the World crying as my Soul
Soul twisted in such sweet Agony
Agony draining from me an endless Toll

The Ache inside my Heart is Fading
Fading from the Memory of You
You that haunts my Dreams so Lovely
Lovely as the Morning Dew 

I fill my Day with a thousand Wishes
Wishes that you would Find Me Again
Again to try the Love We Knew
Knew would Fail Before it Began

The Ache inside my Heart is Growing
Growing from the Memory of You
You that haunts my Dreams so Lovely 
Lovely as the Morning Dew

The Ache inside my Heart is Weeping
Weeping from the Love I Lost
Lost to Time and Space and God
God, Please take from me a Lesser Cost

The Ache inside my Heart is Fading
Fading from the Memory of You
You that Haunts my Dreams so Lovely
Lovely as the Morning Dew

Thank you sooo Much! I awoke from one of Those Dreams The really sad ones and had to spill it.

Thank you both very much. I never have written like I wanted to until a few days ago. I have found that venting my feeling through words have been very therapeutic for me and every compliment that I have received has made me feel absolutely joyful.

Thank you so much. I don't know about nomination for anything. I am just exuberant that people are reading what I have written and they seem to like it.

Oh wow...I have a feeling this one will be nominated! Since I don't have the ability to do so...I am giving this 5*s and adding this to my favorites list. This poem did make me tear up. Well done!
