Every dawn I arise with a weary heart

The empty comfort of sleep escaping me

And left behind is a restless waiting…..

 

 

My mornings wait for your evenings,

When the horizons mesh together

And find solace in the in warmth of the skies.

Me evenings wait for your promises,

Those fleeting words of support

That give me the strength to conquer time.

My nights wait for your dreams,

When the darkness sends me into a black oblivion

And I escape into another world of hope and light.

My sleep waits for your embrace,

For in lonely moments of despair

It is a warmth that wipes away all of my tears.

My tears wait for your love.

My love waits for your desire.

My desire waits for your passion.

As if to lose myself in an intoxicated mistake

Or a beautiful sin…

For this moment I wait….

 

 

I walk a road lined with blooming roses

The scent overwhelming me with its beauty

And I realize my heart

Is no more than a pale green leaf,

While a part of the surroundings that encompass me,

It is still very much alone.

I walk to the end of the road

And a lush landscape unfolds before my eyes,

And I realize my heart is no more than an empty field,

While teeming with life and sunshine,

It remains solitary in existence.

 

 

I wait for those rain soaked breezes

That burn away the worries of the day.

I wait for the scented breezes

That will give a new vigor to my senses.

I wait for a heartbeat,

I wait for a breath,

I wait for a life….

A life I can one day call my own.

For this life I wait…..

 

 

I wait for the time when seasons of change

Will arrive one day

To change the face of existence as I know it

And extinguish the centuries-old thirst

That dwells deep inside of me.

You will return to my embrace

And the pulse of time will cease to exist.

I pray with deepest sincerity

That such a refuge will last for eternities.

For that arrival,

For that love,

I wait….
