"Horizon"
SHE:
Lying in this cold, empty bed
all the warmth is gone
but still
I look for you
in the shadows
of unknown dark
Even now
the fire burns bright
as you threaten to consume me whole
how I need you still
HE:
Trapped in this
cocoon of loneliness
the days blur into one another
as I struggle to make sense of
life without you
SHE:
Memories of you
cling to me
like whispers in the wind
as I look out the window
I desperately want to see
you standing there
waiting for me
Just once more
for old times' sake
HE:
I've been floating adrift
all these lost years
without you
holding onto hope
and praying
to a God who's remained
silently watching our drama unfold
that you would come back to me
SHE:
I never stopped loving you
you've given me joy beyond compare
and nothing in this world matters
more to me than you
HE:
Right here, right now
I look to the sky
and close my eyes
as your love fills the air I breathe
Take me with you
never let go
ever again
I need you, I love you, I want you
when you wake, I shall wait there for you
and long for the moment to begin
when we can share our forever after.

Poem: "Walk Away (Don't Go)"
"Walk Away (Don't Go)"
The sky
so open and yet
so achingly distant
As I wake up
the glaring light
from new day
blinds me
for a moment
You left
without a word
or a goodbye
The sweetness of your kiss
the way you felt against me
meant everything to me
And as I close my eyes,
in the stillness of the moment
as I watch the world unfold
I see your face
one more time
as I reach out
longing for you
I fall to the cold ground
as darkness envelops all around
swallowing me whole.

Poem: "Bridging The Gap"
"Bridging The Gap
HE:
I lay here
in this cold space
the memory
of the beautiful lines
of your perfect form
burned forever
into my brain
I reach out to you
hoping to touch
a piece of heaven
but you are gone
Still I hold onto you
as fragments of what we shared
now replaced by distance
haunt my mind
like a familiar black and white
SHE:
Every moment away
from you seems forced
I'm condemned to
live a forlorn existence
If I could
just hear your voice
trace the lines of your face
drown in your embrace
as we fall towards the bed
our bodies intertwined in desperate need
if just once, our permanent fate
let it be so
HE:
The night sky
seems empty
the rain soaks me
to the bone
I am a wayward soul
without the compass of your love
to guide me home
If I never see you again
Please know
that nothing in this world
or the aftermath
could keep me
from you
SHE:
As I watch the sun rise
My thoughts fly to you
where ever you may be
longing to join our hearts
once more
Mutual devotion
inescapable
as our love
bridges the gap.

Poem: "Crescendo"
"Crescendo"
NEED:
Your subtle charms
the glimmer of forever
in your beautiful gaze
the way your simple touch
changes everything
DESIRE:
A quiet space to share
daydreams of you
just because
to feel your warmth
beside me
As our bodies intertwine
in unspoken devotion
illuminated by perfect moonlight
the passion rises
in the shadows
of unbridled want.

Poem: "The Burning"
"The Burning"
If subtle light
from death of former day
threaten to overtake
the oncoming night
lesser souls will fail
and weaker hearts
falter in their noble
resolve
A final candle burns quietly
in the empty space we longed to share
though you are far away
your beauty is etched in my cold heart
And I shall wait here
for you
as your last kiss
lingers still
on my desperate mouth
The only thing you left behind
was this note:
"The beauty of the stars may fade
and oceans rise and die
but my love for you
will always remain."
Until you come back
the burning of my restless heart
will go on
someday, leading you
home
in my arms again forever.
