AROUND ROSES

LAST WORDS – a phrase that hovers near,
When pain and sorrow draw us near.
A road I find, devoid of end,
In depths of soul, I descend.

My heart’s lament, a silent cry,
For perfect love I can’t espy.
An angel’s touch, a love unknown,
Leaves me adrift, alone.

Who shall grasp my hand, I plea,
As I descend into the sea?
Existence, not in human guise,
But love, a bloom that never dies.

As child, I felt your gentle grace,
Yet still, I search, in endless chase.
For what my life’s true purpose be,
Remains a mystery unto me.
