Is it Time to say Goodbye

within me where memories dwell �
I made a promise I vowed to uphold �
to never leave you and dispel �
the poems you wrote stories you told �

yet the clock ticks clear shadows gather �
louder and louder my protest they drown
impending silence fills my heart with fear
this refuge a sanctuary shall soon be gone �

the lights will twinkle out the curtains drawn
we will wander out from �its empty stillness
the door will close on deep underground
we will shield our tears from alien brightness
�
your poems will be like starlight in the night �
the essence of dreams once unfurled �
wandering homeless just flickering light �
to fade into pinpricks of glow blurred

sweet whispers of you will vanish �
just like passing mists in the mountains
though I will gather those I cherish
every stanza every words testaments

I promised once � a vow I won�t forget �
your words will endure, forevermore
be it here in my heart
or in another site, yet unknown

Author's Note

I was thinking about poems I want to keep especially from poets I follow. I don't know whether I can copy all of them down. I especially want to keep Soul's poems, but it seems I won't be able to download all especially as I have more than a thousand poems here, myself. Nothing one can do of course except do one's best.
