Wandering the dark alone
I found not what I was
Searching for.
Crying unknowingly
I scream for the heavens to
Light my way.
When the path appears I
Race along its
Endless stretch.
I long for the days past
The ones I can never
Recall.
Seeing him ahead of me
I quicken my pace
To a run.
Calling his name joyfully
I open my arms to
Accept.
He Turns Away.
Broken
I lay my head on the
Cold floor.
Tears falling from my
Unseeing eyes.
I look for my family
Left behind.
Open my heart to the
Warmth I'd never
Denied.
They Turn Away.
Now I sit in the
Moon's soft rays
And healing night.
Numb to the core
Of endless dreams
Dashed by morning's light.
All the pieces of my heart
Are blown away
To filter down into
Oblivion.
My chest gapes open
Longing for someone
To heal me again.
Desperate to be whole
Once more.
You Answer Me.
Reveling in the new life
I gave up everything.
Longing to be accepted into
Your open heart.
I offered my flower.
You solemnly accepted.
I lay in your life
As securely as you lay in mine.
And though I look back now
I cannot see where it
Went wrong.
I remember coming to you
With love in my eyes
And a hurting need in my heart.
You Turn Away.
I found not what I was
Searching for.
Crying unknowingly
I scream for the heavens to
Light my way.
When the path appears I
Race along its
Endless stretch.
I long for the days past
The ones I can never
Recall.
Seeing him ahead of me
I quicken my pace
To a run.
Calling his name joyfully
I open my arms to
Accept.

Of endless dreams
Dashed by morning's light.

I remember coming to you
With love in my eyes
And a hurting need in my heart.
You Turn Away.
I awoke to see you next to me
Lost smiling in your dreams.
I stroked your hair
Whispered my love
And felt you pull me again.
Yet now a part of me
Will always wait for
That moment.
That time when you
Will follow the path
Of everyone else
And leave me in the
Dark once more.
Curse me and my
Sight.
