Eternal Breath.

Thy eternal breath

Sweet Rose of youth
Cut off in thy fullest bloom
Thy blood tears flowing with mine own
Alas two hearts cry a river in anguish
Art this now the end?
No my precious Love
This be but a new spring for us
Before the ending an earthly Rose doth wilt
Yet thy spirit doth grow in its magnitude
Thy Love be eternal in its divinity
Come unto me and breathe into me
Thy most precious eternal breath
Thy Rose then eternal shall be
Forever shalt thou bloom in Heavens majesty
God's brightest star and most beautiful Angel
Still thou shalt always be with thy Love
Your earthly life now dwells within my heart and Soul
Thou shalt come and claim thy eternal breath
Night or day it awaits thy glory my eternal Rose
That thou shalt walk again with thy Love
Never to part the true Lovers
Hold my hand forever in Love's midnight dream
When thou dost wish to be with me in this reality
Take back thy eternal breath
Remember to return it before thou doth leave me
Thou art my sun that rises in the morning
Thou art the moon that lights up my night
Forever beats the heart of Love eternal
Eternal be the Love that comes from thee
Let never this beloved of hearts
Be but a desolate wasteland
This heart forever shines with glory
A garden of beauty supreme
For thy Rose doth shine in wonder at its heart
There was but one moment for the agony of parting
Now eternal joy does fill my core
Thou art with me in thy divine glory
Thou didst give me thine own eternal breath
My Soul thy Soul one Soul
My heart thy heart one heart
The river of Love ever dost run
The timeless sea awaits and Love eternal
Never are we parted my most precious Love
All this for I hold thy eternal breath

About this poem:
This poem was written 38 years ago after my Love had died In the States. I would have taken her eternal breath Into me and she would have dwelt within me always. This was not to be. Maybe It Is the curse of one such as myself to walk his many lifetimes alone. Not likely, this Is me we're talking about. As you see, always have to lighten the mood when thinking of this lady. My thinking here, If I go back to an older corner, where I belong, why not make my first write an old write that means much to me. The poem tells the way It should have been.

This is a poem of such extraordinary eloquence and
passion that any meager comment I might make could
never do justice to it. Perhaps this is why poets
must write of love. Thank you.

Mike, I am speechless, breathless and really not worthy to comment except it was so moving it made me cry. crying That, my friend, is a great compliment. I do understand loss of your love, I do. When I lost my husband 10 years ago I thought I would never get over that, time heals our wounds and writing is the salve. sad flower hug

Beautiful and heartwrenching - so sorry for your loss.

I imagine anyone would adore & treasure this poem-most especially the one it was written for - so poetic and filled with love & beauty, as inspired by that special one. Just beautiful....

It touches the heart Mike. Awesome work! When poetry stirs like this it is well worth the read and reread time after time.

Hi Mike

The reader only has to get past the opening lines to realise that this is an eulogy for someone who was very special to you... The poem brings to mind these lines from my favourite Shakespeare sonnet (No 18)

But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st,
Nor shall death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st.


Quite lovely! Best wishes

Hi Cafe, thanks for dropping by and the comment, much appreciated. We all have memories within that bring out many different seasons. It Is strange the things we can blame ourselves for, I made a promise I would take her eternal breath and she promised to take mine. A always thought I didn't come through but then again maybe distance means nothing and I did receive her eternal breath. One day I shall know. Sometimes It Is easier just to let the heart speak. Have a good day. Catch you later. Your Friend always....MIKE.

Incredible poem Mike. ......loved it, and the basis for writing it as sad as it is.

Hi whisper, thanks for dropping by and the comment. We all have these sad moments and we just pick ourselves up and get on with life. It took 38 years or 37, for me to Love again. Eternal breath Is the way things should have went, maybe It did, It's possible distance plays no part when It comes to the eternal breath. I'm happy now. Have a good day. Catch you later. Your Friend always....MIKE.

Mike: Now I'm confused. Both poems are beautiful. But is it about the same love or have you found a new one?
