Here am I
There are you
Waiting for forever
In this garden for two

your eyes how they sparkle
as you brush away the hair
from my glass pale blue eyes

how your lips sing to me
as if they wanted to just
try try to kiss me once again
purge this sweet sin upon my
lips

Fool me once shame on you.....Fool me twice shame on me.....

across the land of dreams. In your heart, I'd always be.

Here am I
There are you
Waiting for forever
In this garden for two

Here you are
There I might be
Wrapped in dreams of you
Eternally

Could I ever tempt you to be?
Here forever with me
As we sing our tunes
Clear away all our past glooms

Could I ever bring you closer
And closer still
Till you become
An indistinguishable part
Of this human cell
That is only me
Only me
No matter how small and humble
It could be


A garden for two
That's all I care for
All I could ever want to be
But where to find such a place
Out of time and space?
If you have an answer,
Pray tell
Never leave me
Tucked alone in some
Faraway mysterious cell.

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

It's been quiet along time since I last wrote something. Your challenge has certainly woke up my muse. Thank you dearly for that.

Here am I
There are you
Waiting for forever
In this garden for two

Smell the sweet rose's
Hear the river run threw
Together forever just us two

We can dance in the moonlight
And stroll in the sun
We can sit by the river
Enjoying our fun

Here I am
There you are
Together forever
For our garden has made us one

Here Am I

Here am I
there are you
waiting for forever
in this garden for two

Here am I
Dreaming of you
There you are
Staring at her

Waiting for forever
To hold your hand
In this garden for two
But

Here am I
There are you
In two separate worlds
Waiting for forever
In this garden for two

Here am I
There are you
Waiting for forever
In this garden for two…

So far away is where you stand
Without thought to this mortal man
You, a goddess who has no needs
Who’ll never heed, to someone such as me…

Though I might, one day, hold you to my breast in error
Or even kiss those lips so red
I shall not feel your fire within
Nor see that smile, the smile you hold for him…

Your love is for another
That I do see, but dreaming of you
Has become my necessity
My need in life, my way of life…

Yet I know that my selfish wish
Will never earn your gift
The gift of love for such as me
Is so far from my very reach

Lay me down and let me sleep
Close these eyes from what they see
Only when my eyes fall shut, shall I rest without a thought
For in ones death, love will not scoff at men with grief…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's a little different from anything i've ever written, and not quite what i wanted. Also, as you have guessed, this is pure 100% fiction. Yet, here you go, hope you like it

Here am I
There are you
Waiting for forever
In this garden for two

All Sitting down
on the ground
picking the lillies
That have grown all around

The Sun is high
Up in the sky
Looking right down
allieving my frown

Time to sleep
Time to drown
in happy dreams gown
surendering to lifes sounds  

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Here am I
there are you
waiting for forever
in this garden for two

tears streaming down,
on a rose petal,
i wait for a while,
so my heart can settle,

you broke my heart but even so,
it wasn't long you wanted me again,
as i walk up the path,
of our special garden,

you make me laugh,
and kiss away my tears,
and all this time away,
i'm so glad to be back here

A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war and a time for peace   ~Ecclesiastes 3:8~

my version


Here am I
There are you
Waiting for forever
In this garden for two

Wondering where you could be:
You promised to come one last time.
But no sight of you do I see.
Too much to hope, that you’d be mine.

Sitting in a dainty white chair, lingering in misled prayers.
Sipping a glass of icy lemonade, I can’t help but wonder who?
Looking at my phone surprised not to see excuses from you.
I guess I was wrong to want, desire, acknowledge something might be there


Here am I, done praying
Sadly finished waiting
In this garden of two.
For what will never be, for you.
