I Thought...You Were Here I sat beneath a shaded tree while sunlight laid upon it's leaves I sat there in thought of where today might find my friend I was among the ones in prayer for a little relief Hoping out there beneath it's branches I may find you again... It was at my moments weakness I thought I heard you calling my name How your voice it just soared upon the breeze I heard the echo of your familiar sound so many times Oh, I like to think at that moment you also were wanting me... I thought I'd never again know the feeling of you at my side But, it was as real as this warm afternoon I will hold onto what I've been fortunate enough to have And, allow forever to remind me of this moment in June... I swear, I saw your face moving with the clouds above And, watched you surround my every move I made I stared in amazement of how clearly your eyes could be seen A view of the sky in its most heartbreaking shade... The tears were just a release from this so very lost soul Afraid to blink and then you will be gone But, I thought then that I heard you breathing at last How it traveled beautifully within this summers song... I watched in the distance how the sun seemed to shine on the ground And, shadows of the fields stood magically on lands of green It was then that I thought I heard you laughing out loud For the wild flowers swayed to it's tune of it's friend unseen... I just sat patiently in what I thought was my only chance And, vowed to remain until sundown with you I must not turn my head from a moment that may never come again Oh, I'd sure like to think beneath your sun you're missing me, too... Sauni Sauni :) |

Faith is what keeps us going towards hope, and hope becomes reality. A great read, and I am sure they missed you too! ~*~ Remember to tell someone today that you love them as tomorrow may never come ~*~ |
