Recapturing a Moment With You

Grief comes in waves and bits at a time........................................

 

 

Somewhere in that dreamy not quite awake state

I see your face and feel you there

Drifting in and out

Sometimes this is all that is left of you

I have to imprint your face again

Looking at pictures of you

Yet I ache for your spirit to touch me

In that dreamy not quite awake state

 

I pick up items that belonged to you

Because I miss your scent

Touching them and trying to recapture

Another moment with you

Wandering through this empty house

Trying to find a piece of you

That dreamy not quite awake state

Is the only place I can reach you

Bummer, that is sad. I don't like them moments. Can you ever make peace with grief. I think not. It strikes us all. What a beautiful, yet depressing moment. It is like capturing that special moment just before the reality succumbs.

Gosh... I am young, but I know exactly the feeling.. This is a beautiful poem.

[*** Hey Jude***]

You feelings are expressed with such vigor and pain. Knowing that when there seems to be a "veil" between you and the one you love can be so heart wrenching. Well written! ~ Jude :-)
