Shadows
As I sit here, Legs Crossed, Head Down
Dragging my Fingers across these Grey Sands of Time Gone by…
I think of the Many You
Your Long Red Hair…
Your Green, now Brown Eyes
A Cool Warm Breeze crosses my Brow
Around me are the many Stars of Hope
Each Gazing… Each Watching
Only they know the Wearing of my Heart
I was only a young child when I first sought you out
You walked me to the Nurse when I felt ill…
You hunted me down, and I let you catch me
I watched you play… I watched you grow, and change
But each day my Heart Longed for something more…
That Kiss Goodnight… That Long, Deep Look
The Parting of your Red Lips
The Warmth of Your Touch, and Meaningful Breath
And Yet you eluded me
And I grew… And changed
You nearly Harmed Me, but I moved away
You tried to Scar me, I would not Stay
In the Middle of the Night, it’s you that touched my hair
Spoke my name
Made me well… And Calm… And Home
I Long to Hold you once again…
Instead I sit here… Legs Crossed…
Head Down…
Fingers in the Sand
With only Shadows of you… And you… And you
