Long for you to turn <br />& then...smile at me again. <br />But – the photo won’t <br />listen to me...'Listen to me! ' <br />Deaf to everything but – Death. <br /> <br />******** <br /> <br />Your grave buried now <br />beneath such snow & prayers. <br />Both angel & I <br />gazing at nothing...sky... <br />you so alive...in my head. <br /> <br />******* <br /> <br />So cold...my shadow <br />frozen to the ground...fract...ures <br />as I move away <br />I leave it behind and grow <br />another to take with me. <br /> <br />******* <br /> <br />Falling now over <br />& over the rain has grown <br />older it would seem <br />I pass through time leaving all <br />sadness behind. I love you.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/long-for-you-to-turn-tankas/
