Di's Poem For 2015

3:00 Am on March 2, 2013 I lost my beloved Di. On the anniversary of her death 2014 I wrote a poem for her. This year, it just felt right to continue the tradition, and I plan on doing it for the foreseeable future. So here is Di's poem for 2015.




Marrow Lost

The world somehow faltered, when she went away
All the bright allure began to go to grey.
From dawns’ firsts breaths to darkened gloamings
No solace found, in midnight roamings

She walks no more with a mortal’s stride
Just a shadow now, on the moon’s tide

Silent are the mountain hollows, and empty stand the trails
No hoofbeats echo long, to race the rushing gales
Fallow lie the fields and lanes, and haunted are the glens
The world now seen always, through a shattered lens

She walks no more with a mortal’s stride
Just a shadow now, on the moon’s tide

A void remains within, where once she held much sway
A dark forsaken corner, in a heart so fey
Always will it be, the soul against long sorrow
Sundered from the pneuma, of her closest marrow
