I close my eyes
and silently I dream...
your words, your song
this refrain impacts me
and I am made shameless
by the sight of your smile.
Someday, lover
I will come to you-
someday, we will again
hold hands on mountaintops
and watch the ocean wash away
our angry past,
our bitter memories-
you and I will be
outside this world together.
I picture your shining eyes
and the beauty held within
on the velvet canvas of night
and even the backdrop of stars
is dimmed by your radiance.
And though I miss your love
There is no love in missing you -
and I have found that I
stand better as a piece of you
than as a whole, apart.
and I have found that this
is how we're meant to be.
We never said goodbye,
we never turned away
we simply drift-
as others often do...
and though today,
we are of different substance-
between this sunset
and tomorrow's dawn -
our truth will be made real again-
and I will wait no more
as I have done for lifetimes
Once more, whether by flesh, or by soul-
when all is said and done
we will find each others arms.
