I like to watch bright stars etched into an indigo skyline
Imprint visions of you as I reminisce of the time gone by
From my mouth to gods ear the distance seems a lifetime
So I write and hold the words to the sky hoping he will read them
Looking for signs
Catching glimpses of visions seeing you and I in new dimensions
Holding on to you like there is no tomorrow with my heart bearing your soul as an inscription
I guess that means she touched me in a way that is unknown
So the search for my soul mate continues until she shows
I write down fragments of what I imagine her to be
So I write down passion an emphatic attraction of what my closed eyes have shown me
I think of rapture I already know the sound of her laughter
I know the grass will be greenest this side so when she comes I will not need to hop the fence then stand lonely and unconvinced after
I’ve made those mistakes before and don’t plan to make those mistakes no more
I plan to be a man and hold her, cherish her and love her like she was praying for
Like she’s been waiting for and like she deserves
But until that time comes I plan to grow as a man so this poem will be more than just words
Thank you for verbalizing what is hopefully still attainable…
because there are times when you the thought crosses your mind to settle for less.
