The Farewell

A blazing afternoon when
the brown of your eyes
thaw into speckles of 
reflected gold and hazel

I long to look and
keep looking as the hazel
reflects my own image
in your view.

I long to see, a deep seated love
that dissolves like wisps
and spiralling circles
to conjure a dream.

I long to see a desire burn
to capture the moment
in fleeting seconds
twinkle in those wells of infinity.

Yet, all I can muster up to look at,
is a furtive glance of your visage
that tells me it's time for noon to descend.


It's time for farewell. 

Permissible

I can see it has got cold,
the winds blow between these miles.
Let me transcend the distance.
Let me be your sunshine.

I shall always brighten the dark
with my little flame of hope.
Let me borrow from your sadness.
Let me instill the strength to cope.

Every time the full moon shows,
and the clouds give way,
let me come closer to you.
Let your heart towards me sway.

In times of despair when you are deserted,
even in a crowd you feel alone,
let me be your one companion.
Let me build you a home.

I know it isn't easy
to believe in others' dreams.
Let me be your reality.
No matter how hard it may seem.

The past doesn't always repeat.
Minutes keep ticking, people run.
But let your heart trust me.
Just let me love you once.  

Wishing unto Reality

I do wish the tempest
would take with it all 
my fears and insecurities
and leave back
just the love I feel for you...

I do wish the swelling waves
of the oceans
would drown my longings
and return your presence ashore...

I do wish the ink that drops
from my quill would speak
much more eloquently
than I ever could...

I do wish every time 
the zephyr turned your way,
it would carry along a soft kiss
to land where realities might never.
