ENDLESS SLEEP

© Gloria Smith 2015
Long after I'm gone I will love on
Don't think me gone for I will come
Once more to you my one true love
Who was so faithful and so brave
Whose kindness you so freely gave
My Words will haunt your heart
Will reach to you from out the dark
And endless sleep of human frame
Your heart has but to call my name
In my repose perchance my prose 
Will yet bespeak my endless love
And Angels bear upon their wings
My voice again to softly sing 
Within the gentle springtime breeze
That stirs the Weeping Cherry tree
A lilting ballad of Faith renewed
And of my sacred love for you

MY HEART BEATS ON

© Gloria Smith 2015
The hurt was as raw as an exposed nerve
And I could not even sing my pain away
For I had lost my song 
Until you came along
Then you became my smile
And my heart beat on...
