The gift of you
26 August 2011
∞
Wrapped tightly against my bosom
Delicately packed in emotion
I hold you in eternal embrace
Like a flower I feel you blossom
I am wrought by night’s devotion
Within infinity I see your face
∞
Time and space join and split
In the wake of your haunting
As my mind follows your feet
Darkness from your face alit
Eases night’s glory so daunting
Is fighting your light’s fleet
∞
I whisper within your teardrops
Your voiceless answer fills my soul
With a thousand words of solace
Destiny’s pace grows the crops
That will tune into you to console
The sorrow worked by disgrace
∞
While the shadows grew tall
And the well brimmed with sand
As the cherry tree fell to mildew
Beckoning to a homecoming fall
I reached and held again your hand
In time I will unroll, the gift of you
