The Red-Rose Wilted Heart Poem by Baby Blue

Sitting here watching the storm clouds roll by,
Gazing at the midnight-celestial heaven, hoping…wishing,
That you, though many miles and light-years away,
Are spying on the same falling star,
Watching it glisten and shimmer in the midnight sky.

This separation has wilted this heart of mine,
The one that was warmed by your every touch,
My heart that you have taken from my own possession,
A love I no longer have to give,
Wilted…with no healing in endless time.

All I’ve got left to this love that once flourished,
Are not the pictures of our life,
Not the songs that we whispered at night,
Nor the smell of your skin or the taste of your kiss,
But rather, every minute filled with memories….cherished

Forever.
