Lover Lie Still

Lover lie still-
your wheels are turning;
things are churning
up from the past;
For you are the mill
of endless yearning,
and memories burning,
because they can't last.

Lover lie still-
for morning's coming;
we've got things humming
hot off the track;
Bitter's the pill
but at least it's numbing,
and skies are rumbling,
they're moving too fast.

Lover lie still-
and calm your heart down;
turn your frown around
into a smile;
I know how you feel
it's a hopeless town,
and you're unwound,
but let's go one more mile.

what a kind poem....to have presence of mind when one you love is frantic is a powerful gift...what a blessing to the recipient...may the miles be endless

Wonderful rhyme and rhythm that moves along at the pace of the lover's turning wheels, and I love the soothing repetition of 'Lover lie still'. :)
