There were no words of forever,
whispered softly or otherwise.
Words truly did not matter,
and forever was always implied.
A life of dreams
built and rebuilt by the hands of time,
ever shifting, drifting, changing,
and yet forever remained implied.
Did you awken me?
Did the spark begin
when we first kissed in the moonlight
silver shades of light, forever implied?
Or was I born loving you,
a part of a whole that destiny comprised,
forged by fate and promise,
with forever always implied.
The light dims, the hand moves,
sunlight fades and shifts to night,
distance and indifferrence take root,
and yet, forever, ever remains implied.
Author notes
I was inspired to write this by the song Brother's on a Hotel Bed...
Great choice of bands !

This is simply amazing!
I love the repetition of "Forever implied" it fit perfectly in all the places you chose to write it! Sometimes repetition can seem forced, but yours (as well as the entire poem) flowed seamlessly!

"A life of dreams, built and rebuilt by the hands on time."
I really liked those lines, for some reason. : )
I absolutely love this poem, and I'm reading it again later with the song actually playing.
Lovely job, and thank you for entering!! : D
