A Day Of Dreams or Nancy comes to receive me!

There was a morning last month, I sensed the strong presence of my soul mate. I felt the need to write an emotional treatise of sorts, what morphed into a free verse.  I call it "A day of Dreams".  It became my own "balm in Gilead".

A DREAM OF DAYS     M. Royer    02/17/2016  (Reunion)

SOMEWHERE, OUT BEYOND THE COUNTY LINE SHE WAITS

IN A STAND OF DISTANT TREES

DIAPHANOUS AND BECKONING WITH A WAVE OF WIND ON 

AN OUTSWEPT HAND…

SHE HAS COME FROM  A FOREIGN REALM TO DRAW ME NEAR ON

A SPEAR OF LIGHT THROUGH THE DAZZLING ARRAY OF ETERNAL MILES. 

BROKEN LINES AND SHATTERED GLASS ARE LITTERED BEFORE THE DREAMSCAPE 

WHILE I LOOSEN ALL SECRETS  ONCE TO BE   KEPT AT LENGTH

I HAVE NO CONVEYANCE BUT BROKEN BOOTS, THE DISTANCE STAGGERS BEYOND REACH

IN APPEARANCE I AM ETERNALLY WAITING AT THE GATE  AS THE HORIZON IS FARTHER THAN

PERCEPTION ALLOWS. 

WILL YOU BRING ME IN ON A BEAM OF YOUR PURE 

ENERGY?

CATCH MY SOUL LIKE A LONG THROWN BASEBALL WITH NO WHERE TO GO BUT

WHERE YOU WILL IT.

SO THAT AS SLUMBER FADES QUIETLY AWAY,   I AM CAPTURED, REBORN INTO CRYSTALS OF LIGHT

BURNING BRIGHTLY OVER UNCERTAIN GROUND, WHILE A NEW MORNING RISES AND  NEW

BREATH IS DRAWN.  AND THEN…….ONLY THEN CAN I FEEL YOUR TOUCH.  HEAR YOUR VOICE LIKE A

BROOK SLOWLY TRICKLING THROUGH THE STARS AND TAKE MY PLACE WITH YOU IN THE HEAVENS,

THEN I WILL BE  REUNITED WITH MY BRIDE ONCE AGAIN!

Movies about grief that actually understand loss — any recommendations?

Hi everyone  I’m new here and honestly never thought I’d need a space like this, but here I am. I’ve been living with grief for a while now, and some days it’s quiet, some days it hits out of nowhere.Lately I’ve been watching movies about loss and grief - not to make myself sad on purpose, but to feel understood. Sometimes seeing grief on screen helps when it’s hard to explain what’s going on inside. The problem is that many “grief movie lists” online feel very surface-level or overly dramatic,…See More
