Until Then

I see you there.....
in dreams
we were making.
You're sitting in shadows -
and don't know
I'm here.....
A long lonely way -
seven sands
still I wander...
back to this moment
remains
just as dear.

I've waited ten thousand
lives
to remember -
the road back to you
was always the same.
Counted by stars
that burned
into nothing....
a candlelight circled
as dust into flame.

I know
that you're lonely.
I've been
only sleeping...
not far from your bed -
the warmth of your sighs.
Tomorrow shall come -
no more
will you worry....

What loss has you grieving -
for death's brief
goodbyes.

Still in your tears
I count every season...
a touch
once so fleeting...
Will we find it
again....
Would love be forever -
so soon
I shall hold you...

Alone in
this silence -
I wait until then.
