Peete's Landing: Tell Me Where You Are

Tell Me Where You Are

"I have lost you -the pain is hard to bear
Do I have to go through life knowing you're not there?
I sit here and remember all the lovely times we shared
the talks- the laughter- of every one you cared.
I am told the pain will ease in time and I will think of you without a tear
but that will be impossible as I need to have you here.
You were the very world to me - my ever guiding star
Just kiss me softly on the cheek and tell me where you are."

Time Does Not Bring Relief.. Edna St. Vincent Millay

Time does not bing relief;
you all have lied who told me
time would ease me of my pain!
I miss him in the weeping of the rain;
I want him at the shrinking of the tide;
The old Snows melt from every mountain-side, and last years leaves are smoke in every lane;
But last year's loving remain's heaped on my heart,
and my old thoughts abide.

There are a hundred places where I fear to go
- so with his memory they brim.
and entering with relief some quiet place
where never fell his foot or shone his face

I say, "There is no memory of him here!"
And so stand stricken, still remembering him.

I Died A Death
