One December Day   From where I lay, one cold winter night Under the street lamps below Crystal snowflakes flickered In the evening light I could see your reflection In the window behind me So sad you looked I felt the pain in your heart I tried not to let you see me crying Then you said softly I'll be back I didn't turn to give you a view I laid my head on my pillow Nodded OK My only solitude Was my window next to me Sometimes the wind would blow To kick up the snow, it gently danced How I wanted to be in that outside moment To forget and start all over again My dreams were dashed Sorrow filled my soul to the core I never thought I could hurt so much Everything seemed alright at first On that long winters night When they took you from my arms I knew I would never Gaze on your beauty again My heart was crushed Lord tell my why Was all I could think If only I could hold your tiny hand once more I would never let it go Ten years have passed since that Dec day I remember every line and curve God gave you The sweet fragrance of your newborn skin Has stayed with me [ Private: Poets choice: Host: Starlight1 If only I could hold your tiny hand once more] [Private: Host: Dream Girl - Tell me why] By gentlewind © 2009 gentlewind (All rights reserved)
