I am missing you today my heart
In an unfinished symphony
The half sketched plans of forever
Sorrow is not my attire
Nor the attitude I wear
Perhaps you see my thoughts
Sunning themselves on alabaster shores
And I could dream eternal spring
Green to flower early mornings
That images unwind their flavors
Sweet and cool upon my mind

For as I heard the complexity of trauma
Masked in jovial grin and tart retort
I saw who you really are
A man of vision and principles
Though bitter is the insulin disguised
We have sought a simple path revised
Yet I pursue my soul in quiet hum
Finding more and deeper dreams to come
Floating with you on the surfaces of sound
Close encounters echo softly all around
Opening my shell to slowly yield the pearl I want revealed

If it is change you shun
I cannot defeat the coming and leaving
And harshly sometimes truth is heard
But softly to impress upon you the earnest of my visions
To intimate and well relate this song
The strong of pure and honest love
One I cannot keep within the bounds
More than I have ever known astounds my core
More, the tingling taste of life lived well
With you, in safe and certain places dwell
And what we have is found and fair
Made to glade for being there

Wow....especially the closing lines, very
nicely done.  You dream...right here,  as
each line paints a vision so well.
