Eternal: The Eternal Nature Of Love (original poetry)steemCreated with Sketch.

in poetry •  7 years ago  (edited)

I wrote this for my family, so that one day in the hopefully distant future they will stumble across my words and know I’ll always be with them.

In truth, time is the most valuable of all commodities and how we choose to spend it is up to us. Alas the hands of time do not grant us equality and so we allow it’s sands to slip through our fingers at our peril.

Eternal
The Eternal Nature Of Love

Transcendence of the spirit
as it rises
from the fire
resurrection of perception
from the ash
and funeral pyre

I promise tears will
leave you
like sun kissed drops of rain
I promise you this
ends not now
our souls will dance again

Till then I’m like
a feather
blowing in the breeze
until the day I hold
your hands
and set sail on infinite seas
