Its a long road
that leads between and back again
Like a drifting wind or tide
that flakes across the boundaries
Then reawakens itself upon
the cracked horizon
Dreams hold here
Past memories too
Seems as if the world has stood still
Awaiting again the moment of you.
Here you are
a radiant vision that fills my soul
revitalized I seek you
To reach, grasp you
Hoping never again the separated yawn
That drifted upon us
held us against each other
Knowing our depth
constrained us to our minds
That somehow said No!
We know now, we always did
That a heart yearns deepest
upon the long wake of hours
That calls you mine, me yours,
We knew it once, feared it
walked away.. yet always looking back
Upon its frown, turning from its want
That need that fills us now as it did then.
It never left, laid awaiting acceptance was all
awaiting the quite eyes that peer deep back
The little tear bud that formed
And there bound us as one.
