Last dance

As I set here in the wee hours of the morning, many things trickle through my mind. Anything from terrible times some of my friends are going through right now to the great times me and a friend have shared. What seems to always out weigh anything else are the struggles I have within my self. One day it may pass, but tonight its hitting home very hard. When I feel like this, I tend to do a bit of reading, normally it will be song lyrics or poems. Tonight it happened to be a little of both, but one particular poem caught my eye. Not sure if I ever shared it before, If I have I do apologize for the repeat. None the less it’s a very touching poem and I felt the need to share it tonight or better yet this morning with you all.

Last Dance
by Aingael ©

my eyes swell from the tears they shed
my heart aches from the words we have said
forever i shall feel the love i have in my heart
but still,'tis almost too much,
the the thought of being apart.
my mind is tired
my thoughts run wild
I feel so vulnerable, almost as a child.
I have no one to blame for life's outcome.
yet I just know what’s here inside is very dear.
my words won't come as id like for them to.
i can't clear my mind
of my thoughts of you
if the hands of time would only turn back
and, in my mind, i wish the unreal
my heart is breaking how do i stop the pain?
i know in my heart i must let you go,
yet my Best Friend i shall lose too.
i have many memories of the love we have shared
if only...
no, You knew i cared.
silence falls deep inside of me.
for id always thought it was meant to be.
all those precious memories i will keep wrapped up
with covers of love and stow away
hoping to share them with you again, someday.
time will lick and heal all these many wounds,
and God will see me through
So please forgive me
if i still have many thoughts of you.
the anger is hard to keep away
the love is greater, and soon wins out
for that is what these words are all about
and in this lifetime...well....maybe
if given a second chance, id save, just for you, one
last dance .

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Stay safe and my God bless you
