Kim V. Poetry

I have loved and lost.
Lost and found again.

I have kissed the lips of an Angel
To taste its sweet poison.

And fell in love with the demons
Inside you.

I have stayed up to watch
The sun set on an ending
Romance.

And witnessed the beginning of
A new one.

I have felt sadness saturate
Shattered spirits
And dove into a
A sea of endless possibilities.

I have lived with hope
And died in its arms.

But none of it compares
To you.

You haunt the passages
Of my empty heart.
Filling each chamber with
Your soul’s poetic legacy.

So I’ll follow the rustle of your
Restless spirit
And the sorrowful notes in your voice.

I’ll follow you until
I, too, become a ghost.

Until I see you
In the warm glow of
Paradise.

And then we’ll wait
Together,
For the light to
Welcome us home.
