Ciana R. Geckle

Is hope gone?
Is friendship lost?
Am I wrong?
Or is this what true love costs?

Like the ancient days of long ago,
We were at one time best friends.
You raised me up when I was low,
We'd be together till the end.

Like the ides of eternity,
Like the sun's bright glow,
Like the flower and the bee,
Was our friendship, now flown.

You drifted and I pulled,
Harsh words came; bonds broke.
Who was wise? Who played the fool?
Too late to say; damage already spoke.

It was I who said I'd always be your friend,
You said you would strive to be a better man.
Was what we said just foolish pretend?
Or was it true-did we misunderstand?

I refuse to give up our treasure,
Although all seems lost,
I will continue to love you without measure,
And win you back; whatever it costs.

Only God knows how this will end,
He alone knows how much I love you,
He knows you're my precious friend,
He knows, too, that I am sad and blue.

I come to you with an open heart and mind,
Asking you to forget everything that's bad,
And to remember our friendship, blessed and kind.
Don't forsake me, don't hurt me, don't leave me sad.

I simply want to say my love for you,
Is as deep as the ocean, high as the sky,
Longer than eternity, soft as the dew,
Warm as the sun, sweet as the Sparrow's cry.

Don't forget me,
Love me true,
Please believe me;
I LOVE YOU.

I only had you for a little while,
I was never able to see your smiles.
Yet I thank God for the little time we had,
Even though when you left I was sad.

You were so precious and small, little ones,
I wouldn't have cared if you were daughters or sons.
I held you within my womb, though not for long,
I was so happy to be your mom.

But God was ready for you to go,
Even though I wanted to see you so.
You died, little ones, within my womb,
And your enclosures of life became a tomb.

I was never able to name you,
I was never able to hold you,
I was never able to feel you breathe,
I was never able to give you the love you need.

I was never able to say goodbye,
Just thinking about it makes me cry.
But you are still a part of our family,
And we all love you; siblings, daddy and me

I await the day when I shall see you again,
When my life ends, and the others sing requiem.
I pray I'll be in heaven, and there I'll come see you,
Where you, my little angels, play under skies so blue.
