"Wishing For You"
September morn
come 'round again
the wind makes
the trees sway
as the leaves
soon change color
Our room is empty
since you went away
the sheets unkempt
your scent lingering
As I sit in the same
old chair
in front of the blinking
computer screen
Waiting for the words
to come
that will make you see
somehow
make you stop in
your tracks
Last night
we had coffee
and talked for the last time
If I close my eyes
and let my thoughts drift off
of us alone
together
That special place
where we can never go
because you, my darling
belong to another
And I refuse to give in
to the temptation of
casting aside
my better angels
I need you
but I can never
be the one
for you, my dearest
I want you
but the secret garden
will be forever locked away
Our Eden
will never be
though I still
wish for you
My world's spinning
as you watch desperately
with love in your heart
as I silently fade into
beautiful shadow
How I love you still
And my forlorn heart
will cling to you
amidst the great divide
that will forever
be our guide.
