Glimmer of Hope
The glimmer of hope faded so fast,
A chance to recapture dreams of the past.
Of days that were happy and blissfully warm,
The days that we spent in each others arms.
Hope of reunion to find once again,
The bond that had tied us, but I’ve only found pain.
The glimmer of hope, to turn back the time,
To the days of our marriage, but I can just pine.
For the trust and the care, that joined us as one,
The glimmer flew by, and my last hope was gone.
It’s the memories though, that linger so strong,
The dreams that we shared, and held them so long.
The wonderful memories surface so strong,
Masking the bad as if they are gone.
But some painful ones will take time to allay,
I will let them dissolve with each passing day.
And cherish the vision of you in our bliss,
When we wouldn’t have dreamed of a year like this.
A nightmare unfolded, as the New Year turned,
And left my life shattered, twisted and burned.
The pain and the scars of this insane year,
Has broken my heart, and filled me with fear.
A life without you, had never entered my head,
But, I face the reality with a heart fully bled.
I dream of a time when the pain has been shed,
When I can peacefully sleep, alone in my bed.
All pain and sorrow, passed into time,
Maybe then a new glimmer will venture to shine.
And offer a chance to right all the wrong,
To rebuild the dreams, the dreams we held strong.
I openly say, I regret what I’ve been,
And can’t hide the pain of what I have seen.
But deep in my heart there’s a burning desire,
To sweep out the pain, and rebuild the fire.
Of the passionate love, we shared through the years,
Another glimmer of hope, I wait to see through my tears.
I will patiently wait, for a glimmer to shine,
An inkling of hope, the faintest small sign.
For the day that your heart may send out a cue,
To search for the husband that is devoted to you.
It may come soon, you may never see,
But my love for you Jenny, for always will be.
