Don't usually like to post two poems in a row, but I woke up and had to jot this down... (freewritten again)

In The Wake of This
-------------------------------------
I wake and it's not to your face
though in vain I search the darkness
with slow heavy eyes
though I feel through the black of night
with numb unsteady hands
I will never reach you again, will I?
Your smile will never again wait
for me to wake
And in the wake of this
my heart beats like a funeral march
And I am dead without you
though you live and life goes on
for you so cruelly
I'm burried by the memories
heaped upon my shoulders
like so many handfuls of dirt
6 feet under, barely breathing
in this dark place I cannot sleep
If dreams could bring you back again
If the night could just take on your shape
and wrap around me like your loving arms
once did
I swear, I'd stay in darkness
I swear, I'd wish to never wake...

had to write more... it just keeps coming to me:
Still awake, I thought that I was dreaming,
but even my dreams elude me,
even they cruelly taunt me
with the empty promise of bringing me back
to where I was
Regret had always been foreign to me
but now it's a close and lasting friend
This love will be the end of me...
hey,
there is nothing God cant do!!
God be with you dear,
pray and God will guide you
