Hey this is my second submit- my second poem so be nice- because this is my pride and joy i said i was considering submitting

“Waiting here for you”

I'm standing here, waiting for you

With dreams so sweet and memories too

But sadly it's your memories that have been taken

And your destiny here with me in which has been forsaken

I see you now, still as beautiful as ever

But with lost eyes and emotionless thoughts that seem they shall remain forever

I still love you dearly, wholly and true

But you're always beyond my reach and into the hue

I still think of the day in which the war ended

And we stood our grounds, doing what is right and defended

In a moments flash my heart turned to stone

As I saw you fall and thought I was alone

I saw your blood escaping your body and head

And it was then my heart broke as I thought you were dead

I felt tears run down my face as I shook my head in disbelief

And my hands curled up into fists, controlling my anger and grief

When I saw you stir my heart became whole again

And I cried in relief and felt like dancing in the rain

But something was not right as you opened your eyes

Yous seemed to see me as a soldier in a clever disguise

Then you said the words that sent a shiver down my spine

You asked who I was and if this was the end of your time

I felt the full force of a dagger pierce my heart

I tired to reach out to you before my heart falls apart

Just like that my dreams were shattered and broken

I refused to understand how these words could have been spoken

With every passing day I looked after my love

Praying for your memories, to the skies above

And with every new day I was gravely disappointed

For it seemed your memories would never return and we would be never be anointed

The time is passing slowly as I feel my pain

As I watch your expression turn form fear to shame

Every morning I ask if you remember me

But all you do is shake your head aggressively

Your strong soul and heart is what kept you alive

But to see you like this I doubt if I can survive

But this I will, for it is all I can do

To help you remember and give back your life to you

In my heart I know, as I trust in fate

That you will come back to me, even if a little late

I feel the hole in my heart grow bigger with every passing day

And the thoughts in my head are as hollow as the words that I say

I still have hope and still wait for you

I wait for your memories and our destiny to come true

I long for the warmth you once gave me

But there has been nothing but emptiness for what seems like eternity

I feel the loneliness as I hold onto love

As I see your former self, the peaceful white dove

But that side of you is aloft and out of place

Not where is belongs, right here with me so I can see the light on your face

My growing love is making me sick

And the sorrow in my heart is weighted like a brick

The only way to save my life

Is to come back to me dearest, through all this strife

I am dying my love, because you are not here

But our memories will live on for others to hear

I wish you were here with all my might

So I could kiss you one last time, before I see the light

00000000

I know you are dying my love and I cannot bear to see your pain

But though my love for you is deep, I feel so lame

I love you my dearest with all my heart

Although through this time we have seemed to fall apart

I wish I could save you, I would if I could

But my memories seem nonexistent and hollow as dry old wood

I tired to reach out for you, tell you who I am

But all I managed to do was build myself a dam

I feel cold and alone and I see you fake a smile

I can see through your mask and remember, if only for a while

When I remember I know it will hurt

To remember the lives that I took and the love that I hurt

Hold on my darling, don't leave me here

Don't let me remember only to fall into a world of despair

I love you my darling and you are worth the fight

So hold onto me closely, hold on with all your might

I will fight for you, for your warm touch

Even if all I have to fight with is not very much

I honestly believe I can save you, though I know not how

But I shall bestow upon your our last kiss, on this fine hour

This hour that might help me remember

This day we first met, the first of December

I felt the pull of the kiss as your last wish came true

And I remembered it all, when it was just me and you

I felt tears of joy spill as I realize

That I broke the spell and you opened your eyes

I felt the warmth that was passed from me to you

And you looked up and smiled at me out of the blue

I felt your happiness when I told you I remember

As you asked me what day we met I said, the first of December

00000000

Neither died, though we both saw the gate

We both came back without regret or hate

Our love is still forever strong and true

And fate made sure I was returned to you

For my wish was granted and I am eternally grateful

I am always yours and forever faithful

Let it be known that we both still remain

to take out our children to splash in puddles and dance in the rain

The End

This can be interpreted either way as I never specified which lover was the girl and the boy... so it's kinda up to you to make a descision and we'll see if you interpreted it the way it was written ( there is no right answer- merely different points of views)

Please read and review and tell me what you think!

NO FLAMES! As I said this piece is my baby- my pride and joy
