Where for art thou wounded heart <br />Dost thou wish for thee to part? <br />If wind, like rain, shall fall on thee <br />Then smile I will, for we now see <br /> <br />If this departure serves thou well <br />Then leave I must, the place we dwell <br />What dost thou see when closing eyes? <br />A distant meadow with flowing skies? <br /> <br />If love like ours can not prevail <br />What will the future then entail? <br />The wise will fall upon each breath <br />Of nearing love or sudden death <br /> <br />For torturous winds and bitter days <br />Shall fail to rouse thee from this haze <br />If thunder shakes the peace we sought <br />I’ll waste not but a single thought <br /> <br />For I shall greet the nearing hour <br />With all the hope it will devour <br />And there behold the truth of life <br />In all its glory, in all its strife<br /><br />Zoe Elsworth<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/haze-of-life/
