Eternity

an original poem

By Daniel FarleyPublished 5 years ago 1 min read

A day of deceptive bliss

Will soon take away my innocence

I’m still haunted by how lost I felt inside

A devastated, mourning family was all that was left behind

Just your presence brought my screaming tantrums at ease

Now I just wish you could bring this dysfunction some peace

I will never forget your face

Nor will I ever forget the emotions I was forced to embrace

It kills me that your voice is fading from my memory

But somehow, I still hear you talking me through this misery

All the while I was kept in darkness

Fore I had very little knowledge of your condition

Only now do I realize

Your guiding spirit is the only reason I’m still alive

What little there is left I will try to save

It’s the only thing that's kept me sane

Memories have kept me bound to time

In my dreams you chase the nightmares out of my mind

I guess it’s time for me to see

That you're resting a peaceful eternity.
