Poem: "Horizon"

"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.
