an entire summer of missing
well since July anyway
fell to the arms of this weekend
the minutes crawled after the hours
hoping to gather enough momentum
for Tuesday to slam its way into place
yet here it is only a cold dreary
over cast Monday
and no such event
roused itself enough to occur
you in your world
I contemplate what that means
my mind's eye is so preoccupied
by that
almost parallel seems my demeanor
but only to me
as my thoughts are my own
and I guard them with glee
one day
I whisper ah yes indeed one day
but today is not that day
I am a one line lyric to
a song that has yet to be
completed
and what are you then
my melody
the catchy chorus
everyone likes to hum
perhaps
and then again
perhaps
you are just another
haunting lyric
all your own
waiting for the time
to mark your own line
'In Of All Things Beautiful'
our very own song
now
smiling a bit sentimentally
to myself
I reach back to a few days
past
and pet those memories
we made for each other
and skate my mind
across
lovely poignant lines
you wrote so recently
just for my heart's eyes
to hold onto and love
Tuesday can't come
soon enough
the eve before
you start a new life
the phase for us
I sigh
is just about to start
so smile my darling
love awaits us
to come home to
we each must merely
take that flight
and begin that journey
that will enable us to
sooner cross paths
dawn is breaking
so stay calm my love
for it is not so very long now..............
