She Waits (poem)
She waits for him mid sands he cannot see
His mind and heart are oh so far away
The world he knows has lead them all astray
How can her truth compete with fantasy
-
She waits with tears so long were put aside
The flowers in his garden need no rain
So far removed from pleasure and all pain
How much has doubt and fear force him to hide
-
She waits amid the silence of a song
A memory so long he has forgot
The life he leads no longer has a plot
How can he wonder when his way went wrong
-
But deep at nights when everything abates
And darkness brings new meaning what is real
His soul is kissed by something it does feel
Where now touches forever there she waits
