There's a reason I've turned away from your love. <br />Depriving myself of the man I've drempt of. <br />Your heart reaching for mine, <br />words sweet as wine. <br />Your touch, heaven sent from above. <br /> <br />A sentence of death has been handed to me. <br />Of mind, body and soul, our love never to be. <br />Please turn and walk on, <br />not just after I'm gone, <br />but now, as my tears set you free. <br /> <br />Your deserving of love that's enduring forever. <br />I've prayed I could give you, 'Happily Ever After'. <br />But, now it's to late. <br />I must face my fate. <br />Forgive me, my love, I'm not stronger. <br /> <br />Please understand that your love is my dream. <br />Your arms wrapped around me, secure, it would seem. <br />No protection from death <br />as I take my last breath <br />and darkness creeps over my being. <br /> <br />Good bye my love, I'm pleading.<br /><br />Lisa Culley<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/good-bye-my-love-3/
