Just For You Poetry

Through distant tunnel time,
I hear you calling me.
In darkness I can't see
your gentle face.

Tossed in turbulent sheets,
you come at troubled night.
A mother's grievous plight
still tortures me.

Tracing memories dear,
I follow in the dark,
then glimpse you like a lark
escape my grasp.

Though years out span my reach,
I miss you child of mine.
I'll hold you one more time
in sleepless dreams.

such beautifully sad words Colleen, my heart reaches out to you...

I like your new avatar it's cute

Very sad and very beautiful. I love the last two lines. They're so haunting.

Thank you! I was watching a crime show on ID TV. The horror these people experience when their children are taken from them was my inspiration. So very very sad. Truly, if this loss were my own I don't think I could write about it.
