Do you see the tears of whimsy
dabbling graceful down her face?
Could you grasp the fleeting image
mixed with doubt and self-denial?
Love, for her a metronome
slowly swinging to and fro.
Ticking, smiling, sometimes crying
She's more than most could ever know.

Is there no one to console her?
To wipe her face and dry her eyes?
Surely her smile is lovely, gentle
When greiving pools cease to flood.
Love, sing now the requiem. . .!
A rumbling crescendo yet lower than a dirge
when there is no more than constant mouring
Nothing left to loose, far too much to purge.

Waiting in anticipation she sits in twilight all aglow.
A doll of fragile porcelain, self-aware and self-contained.
A soft smile and gentle laugher tiptoes from behind a shadow.
Eyes of blue spark emotion, hymns of joy and lilting pain.
Love, you need not wait forever
Speaking out of turn, we smile.
For who knows what the future holds. . .
and whom shall we beguile?


---------------------------------------------------------------------

Ever faithful, love so true,
My hands reach for you and only for you
The future only held us there (in the palm of its very hands)
In time enough for us to care ( and for us to understand)
But care too much - if you can do such be we guilty yet
There's never a dull moment - from wonder to regret

You are so very diligent in your loving me
I feel so sure that there is more I could do to love thee
I feel my mind keeps me trapped and though it's nearly colasped
I know that you still weep for me (as I learn how to smile for you)
A thousand times I know that you're the one to set me free!

Love, there's only a short time before we are complete
I hate myself for falling short and I hate myself for being weak
Until we reunite that night and bask in the moon's sweet glow
I will keep trying, ever-still . . .
Though your more than I will ever know.





I love you. I hate myself for being such a jerk. I'm waiting in eagar anticipation and I thank you for praying for me and beleiving in me. I've never felt this close to anyone else and I get like that because I'm close to you. I want to know these people that have brought you such joy and inspired you! I love you!
