With eyes closed <br />I can see you standing <br />Out of reach and <br />You are still wearing <br />The same old raincoat <br />Like years ago when we <br />Where the ones life <br />Could never split <br /> <br />Or at least we thought <br />That we could stay <br />Together in this way <br />And did not worry <br />About the threatening <br />Old man in a dark coat <br />As he came closer <br />Our eyes closed stronger <br /> <br />And I never told you all <br />That’s on my mind I thought <br />We had so much time <br />And I never told you I <br />Was so glad you were mine <br />I never told you not to leave <br />I never told you to stay <br />Now I am here alone <br /> <br />With so much to say <br />So many words to whisper <br />Into your ears and soul <br />So many words without <br />A direction to go to <br />Whom should they follow <br />And they seem so hollow without <br />The sound of your voice <br /> <br />In between the lines I write <br />Can you feel my broken side <br />All these words in all those lines <br />That in all those years you never <br />Read over you never read over <br />A single line of mine <br />As time was not on our side <br />And it took you away <br /> <br />Too early to see what a woman <br />I would be too early to read <br />The outcome of the seed <br />You planted deep inside of me <br />Which you watered with so <br />Much of your mind and love <br />Because you believed that I <br />Could be what you seeded in me<br /><br />Martine Kolber<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/letter-to-heaven/
