OctPoWriMo 2016: Day 19: Trees



The morning when we walked beneath
The arch of trees in the royal glade
I knew we would be leaving our world behind
I ignored the feeling of doom rising in my soul
I turned my dark premonition to Aubade
Because I wanted for our future to be one of joy
On that day, I lost everything
My hopes for our tomorrow
My dreams for our new beginning
I lost my world
I lost you
Perhaps that is why in my current lifetime
The coming of morning 
Always makes me melancholy
I wish I could always sleep and never wake
I wish I could dream forever of you
But then the damned yellow sun
Comes through the window and forces me to remember
What was and what can never be again

We love comments, with three caveats.
Be cool, Fool.
Don't be rude, Dude.
Don't be a prick, Slick.
That's all, Saul.
I try to get comments published as quickly as possible. I don't always reply to comments on my blog, but I do try to visit as many people as possible when I participate in blog hops and I share links where possible to Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and such so others can discover your work. I do read and appreciate your comments.
