 The Poetry of Love

Waiting for Your Return



I stand in the door staring at the bed
Where just last nite you laid your head
Time has stolen you from me
But nothing can take away your memory
You're absence tears at my heart
It's just not fair that we're apart
The loneliness consumes my soul
Without you here, I m half not whole
I hold the phone over my heart
And remember your voice passing through it
It feels like decades since we've touched
But No matter how hard it gets
I know I'll find the strength to do it.
And even if we're worlds apart
I feel you deep inside my heart
and hang my heart on the brightest star
To keep watch over you from afar
So until you return to my arms
My love will keep you safe from harm
And tonight when I lie down in the same place
where I held you close and caressed your face
And slept so softly with in your arms
I hold you in my dreams ‘til you return.
Where ever your journey carries you
Your heart is safe in a love that's true.
