I have stood on the edge of existence,
glanced at the vastness of all eternity
and witnessed the light of my spirit
in the tiniest glimmer in his eyes.

I Wait

I stand outside the doorway, time passes around me
as I wait for you to invite me in.

From time to time you chance to peer out and visit me,
Tho not but for a moment, only to retreat once again into
the corridors of your world.

I come back, day after day, year after year
to sit and wait once more.

Through the winters of your sorrow, I listened intently.
Through the Summers of your joy, my heart smiled.
Through the Autumn of your yesterdays, I remembered and
the Springtime of your tomorrows, I wait.

Through every season of your life I have waited.
Just beyond the towering walls of your heart.

Bittersweet Sorrow

With the setting of the sun and the misty night air
lingering on my bare skin,I breath and take in
the warmth of the summer.

A sigh of regret fills the silent world around me.
My thoughts scatter in every direction,as I try
to gather the pieces of my heart.

Stillness engulfs me all at once,
as the crickets chime in with a melodious song.
A soft breeze touches my face,I close my eyes
and feel you near.

The stars glimmer in the sky above,
a bittersweet taste crosses my lips as I
wipe the sorrow from my eyes,
only to await its return.
