In the Ripples of the Torn Sky By Flowetic Justice
I still see you
in those filtering silent moments
when the dawn breaks hard
and the light of the coming day
warms me like the breath of of a lost angel
and I recall your touch
and then the tears fall
wet in their cascade
on my cheek
I still see you
when the weeping day
is hovering at it's peak
your face created there
in the breathing glow
of the dancing sun
merging with the beauty
of the fires of the sky
and though I attempt to smile
the ache in me returns
in the howl of the space
carved by your absence
and my heart grieves
once more
I still see you
when the day makes it's retreat
as the golden orb of solar fire
retires over the beckoning horizon
when there is the seeping calm
before the sky goes dark
and I am left alone
in the company of my beating heart
your image is there before me
like a painting made with the mind
suspended in the cradle of time
of what once was
and what could still be
I can feel you near me
as if I am found within your eyes
as I sit there viewing the ribbons
of light that streak deep
within the fabric of the sky
the river that flows in me
holds an empty vessel
the one we used to travel within
and it is then that I realize
that there is still time
for the two to find their path
on the waves of a waiting love
I still see you
when the sky becomes
the endless cloak of night
and my eyes turn to the stars
I see your face amongst
the scattering twinkles
and it shines brightest of all
my heart flutters then
and beasts faster as I reach for you
and then you are gone
but the image still remains
with me as always
like the notes of our favorite song
always and forever
seemed to be just a title
until I found you
and before I close my eyes to sleep
I know that there can be
another page for us
that still can be written
for true love never dies
it just soars as it flies
in the ripples of the torn sky
