BEFORE ECHOES AGAIN ...

In the echoes of my spirit, I hear your voice calling;
The ages have kept clear the path to my wanting ears.
We have met before, in deepest love and in darkest sorrow;
We will meet again, in threads of your song eternal.

You once shouted my name across a battlefield of fire;
Through thick black smoke I saw your silhouette.
My run towards you, stunted by a bullet's path;
Only to see heaven's gate in your crystal tears.

You once sang arias to me before crowds of thousands;
Through the thunderous applause I tossed you a rose.
Its petals bowed down to your grace and fragrance;
Only to feel your kiss of awakening and purity.

You once beckoned my call from balcony's ledge;
Through the nightfall's mist I begged a kiss.
Would be to chance our lives and cheat our fates;
Only to hear you whisper passion's sweet hush.

You once said we would always be together's bond;
Through time eternal I would honor our solemn pact.
In the echoes of my soul, I hear your love declared;
The eons have kept clear the path to our unity.

My calling before me, let quill be my offering;
For to be called poet, no greater gift to receive.

There are places inside our souls -
that have never been touched.
There are places inside our hearts -
that need to be loved this much.
