Whispering leaves picked up their overnight bag Walking down steps of good-byes again Only turning to speak in a breeze, “I’ll be back again” An autumn chill spoke in tears Holding hope in my heart that darkness wouldn’t last This time was different he said All that time, another summer stirred his soul He held my essence in storm’s embrace As I wasn’t his choice, he didn’t care or know He held my touch, in his soul Though someone else held him close Another maiden’s name came across my telephone After the promises he’d made and I believed so honestly So come, and go, if you must Someday love will once again earn my trust All of my life I had passed the time…waiting For the man of my dreams to come along Tonight I write this empty page Was a longing to have someone like him foolish? Who loved someone else all this time? All this time…he acted like mine was a greater love Then he’d have ever known I thought he needed time…perhaps to grow A bond was broken a promise came undone He held my touch, in his soul Though someone else held him close Truth of dreams brings from journey’s hands With awesome ease and sweet anticipation Snow falls in the first moon…unable to reach morning We’d been through a lot…life changing lectures dawning I paid attention, seems like years ago That you moved so far away We’ve left one another in the shadows Images are fluent where words were not To my little life he was a brush stoke on canvas One of those priceless works of art you’ll see, but never have My heart lay still and tuned to his music Oh, those magical nights we danced, under the twilight When you wandered into my every dream Yet always beyond my grasp….he’s never there nor with me So long ago… Did you know I saw your aura? Though lies caused the lack of trust You crushed my heart…I let go to be strong now I’ve had enough, and know I won’t be seeing you tomorrow The pain had thought with me for hours He held my touch, in his soul But another lady held him close And I was shocked, because you did it all so audaciously ...and I would have loved him like he's never been loved or appreciated before.... |
