PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Laying on my back

in the sun

feeling the earth

beneath me as it turns

Knowing that just a few days ago

you were here in this very spot

and the ground is still

warm where you sat beside me

and I can roll over

to feel your presence in the warmth

Wishing words would come

to say I am at peace

just knowing you were here

with me only days ago

Watching the sun playing shapes

on the screen of my eyelids

in shades of red and orange

and when I open them

I swear I’ve never seen the sky

so frighteningly blue

without a cloud in sight

and I swear

it’s all for you

And me the poet

sleeping with his notebooks

in the spot his love once occupied

in the grass with leaves in his hair

Fallen asleep with pen in hand

to dream with a certain smile

reserved only for you
