darkness

Here I sit all alone,
Patiently waiting by the phone.
Darkness is closing all around,
As I sit here on the ground.
Figures move in the night,
Hiding in the shadows out of sight.
More frightened I become,
Seeing nowhere I can run.
Figures moving closer still,
Run I must but I have no will.
From the darkness a light appears,
Two arms surround me and quiet all my fears.
A face I cannot see,
But how these arms they comfort me.
All around me bright and warm,
The shadow takes human form.
A man in a long dark coat,
A lump forms in my throat.
Who could this stranger be?,
His face I cannot see.
As he reaches out his hand,
I do not fear this strange man.
His hands warm in mine,
I feel love divine.
This man who came out of the night,
Has sent my heart a flight.
As he looks into my eyes,
I feel my feet begin to rise.
His eyes look into my soul,
Does he know my heart he stole?
As the sun sheds it's light,
Was that a dream I had last night?
As I wake, no it seems,
The wonderful man is lying next to me.
