gently rocks me to sleep.
filling my head,
with sweet dreams.
Dreams of you singing me,
'I wanna be your boyfriend'
asking if I love you too.
Holding me close,
I lay my head upon your chest,
I hear your heartbeat,
and it sends me into loveliness.
Then the record stops,
and the dreams fade away.
then I remember that you've gone,
and I start to cry.
I go to your grave,
I see the scattered leather jackets,
photographs and letters,
put there in honor of your memory.
Tracing my fingers over your name,
I smile to myself,
and say with one shining tear,
" I miss you, my lovely Joey."

my uncle had a son,
no one knew until the day of his Wake...
his name is Damian,
he looks just like his dad.....leather jacket and all..
it's difficult to talk with Damian, I fight back tears every time...the kid's 16 and falling fast....his dad left and never said goodbye..
here i sit in this uncomfortable wooden rocking chair balling my eyes out yet again - this contest brought out so many more tears than I anticipated ....
thank you for your entry,
in a way i'm glad it's made me cry.

The part:
Your sweet voice,
gently rocks me to sleep.
filling my head,
with sweet dreams.
Dreams of you singing me,
'I wanna be your boyfriend'
asking if I love you too.
Holding me close,
I lay my head upon your chest,
I hear your heartbeat,
and it sends me into lovelines
bysides the "i wanna be your boyfriend" this reminded me of my boyfriend. I love my head on his chest and listening to his heartbeat. When we can't lay together like that, where we're just laying together and talking. I just miss it so much. I wish we could live together now. If you want to know the rest(the secert[spelling]) let me know.
thanks for entering. Good luck and i'm sorry for your loss.

Losing love is indeed one of the most shattering emotions one can feel, and when you realize they are gone, it hurts all over again. This was an excellent view into this emotion of many who may never feel it. Great write and good luck in my contest.
