Waiting

Lying upon pillow the head
Lazy hand through loose hair sliding
Dreamily the eyes gaze afar
Fondly smiles play over lips again longing

Daydreams slowly come and go
Memories make the heart aflutter
Softly the hands reach out to you
To grasp what is so closely sensed

A tight hug in remembrance
A kiss flung into the air
Words spoken with intense passion
Dear promises given where they belong

One night soon it will pass
Recalling no longer what was
But instead in flesh and blood
Living the hours truly in devotion.

Tied together

Tied together you and I, forever bound by fate.
This which is was meant to be
And cannot be avoided.

In the silent hours

In the silent hours of the night
When all seem truly darkest
And hope might have flown away
Through the window you left open

Then upon the inky sky
Alone and in greatest majesty
A shooting star will swiftly pass by
Anew crying out bright words of hope

Alive the seeds fall to the ground
Long parched by bitter despair
Softly as summer rain in drops
Feeding thirst and hunger

High up in the sky voices rise
The heart alight with visions
Deep trust what will come
Once again is kindled.

I work

Absorbed in thoughts I work
Pushing aside the feelings that threaten
to break through, violently
my carefully constructed cover.
Defence placed out of necessity
Covering my heart from the rage
Flames burn and tear apart, what
was built in the bright daylight.
