Love Poem: With Bated Breath

With Bated Breath

Weathered memories
I dream of you as always
Thoughts that linger onwards
Hover in the stillness of the night

Behind sullen shadows
Across silent clashing waves
Throbs of a heart beating
Echo relentless in my head
Distanced from this realm

Beached dreams of you and me
Reminder of our time cut short
Every moment thereafter
A throbbing aching longing
To reunite two souls in love
Heaven awaits with bated breath
