Sitting by the fireplace
It’s as empty as my soul
I shed a single solitary tear
Remembering the plans we had
Looking out the window
I see birds flying free
Remembering how my heart fluttered
Every time we were together
I bow my head in shame
Seeing what I’ve become
Knowing this wasn’t what was meant
I’m caught in this whirlpool again
Staring at the tiled floor
It’s cracked like my heart
Breaking the blessed silence
I scream out “WHY ME?”
Measured not by time or length
Measured though by it’s strength
Seen by many never touched
Seen but missed never clutched
Felt by those pure at heart
Felt forever all in part
Taste of joy to your soul
Taste of it should be your goal
Hear it coming from afar
Hear the music that you are
Measured not by time or length
Measured though by its strength
When the time is right
In the full moon light
I’ll lean over for a kiss
And taste your succulent lips
You’ll put your fingers and nails
Against my cheek you will feel
The tingle you send down my spine
And savour me like a fine wine
As we slide closer together
My arm around your waist forever
Our bodies embrace this moment in time
I once and for all will make you mine
I open my eyes see what you feel
Looking at you I know this is real
Our bodies melt together as one
In this moment till the dawning sun
