    Dance Eternally

    Black and white and shades of gray

    Haunt my every waking day

    My present life a darkened haze

    Masked by your memory


    Shadows creep upon my wall

    Swinging swaying down my hall

    Dance a tune at death's grand ball

    Calling out to me


    Thoughts of you I can't erase

    My lovers eyes and warm embrace

    Or the paleness of your face

    When death had set you free


    But freedom hasn't come my way

    Since your life slipped away

    My broken heart's upon display

    For all the world to see


    How long must I live this way

    In this world from day to day

    Death be kind take me away

    This is my only plea


    I long for death to take me soon

    And then a song plays in my room

    Filling up my self made tomb

    A song for you and me


    You reach right through me with your hand

    Guide me through my empty land

    Waltz me softly to the band

    I feel your entity


    You slowly lead me on the floor

    Swing me gently to the door

    Encourage me to live life more

    And let my hand go free


    I take a tiny small step torward

    A brand new life as I move forward

    Turn myself back to the door

    But you have gone from me


    I blow you softly one last kiss

    Knowing that our lover's bliss

    Is something I will surely miss

    But not eternally


    For in the end I know it's true

    In life's sweet death I'll dance with you

    When my life on earth is through

    For all eterninty

    sweet and Elegant and real and true.....word play is amazing .........subject matter adorable and put death into a light not a dark as others seem to see death as alway the enemy of man instead of just the opposite of life and not a threat unless it comes through suicide which is a spiritual disturbance of the flow of life and death which nature has dominance over and no man should touch with out eternal curse of his own natural rhythm in the spirit realm creates turbulence of un-rest for the spirit of that which once was flesh and spirit, but yet this dance lead to your door a new door not his door yet the completion of your dance with this soul you once knew one that left you not empty but fulfilled in his absence. this one is a weak up call of someone who knows the spirit world continuous or uncontentious and is a place and miss understanding that humans don't comprehend yet some do not many.this poem needs to be copy written it is spellable. science is bringing these fracture's to the surface as we speak I have been doing my research.I rate this a 100 and you are wonderful in spirit. the wonderful world of the unknown. You sister in poetry. Chi.

    Very impressive..Good flow and rhythm. I believe we do not cease to live when we leave this world..I believe that a soul will always find its mate not matter how long it takes.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
