There You Are, At Last

You laugh when I tell you
how I felt when first we met

"There you are, at last"

I had so much to tell you
so much to catch up on
And you-
you had an overwhelming
need to hear-to listen
You watched and listened with
your soul

It seems to soon for you to
know so much
Too soon for me to know
without being told
My life-cynical reason says
I'm wrong, I'm blind
This can't be

My soul knows the
timeless truth
We've loved from the beginning

You laugh tolerantly
You play along
This life's-cynical reason
so strong

I see it in your eyes
wanting to believe
at times half-believing
flashes of certainty

Our coming together again
is healing the pain of being
so long apart

You wishing it had happened
sooner
Me hoping it doesn't end
too soon.


A Child Is Born version one

A child is born
Life's Impressions begin
Love: tender, giving, gentle
An emotional liferaft.

Rejection, anger, pain
Sadness that overwhelms
Lonliness like acid to the soul
Fantasy fades to darkness
Dreams wither from reality.

Desperately, frantically fighting
Pain upon pain
Agony unending
Crushing, hopeless.

It has been said,
"Where there is life,
there is hope."
Is this life,
Or a nightmare?

Where there is no love,
Can love be found?

And in desperation
A child is born.


Waiting

Though you may never know
I give you silently
my love, my heart

I wish you happiness
and I will always be here
in the background
if you need a friend

Whatever you ask of me
I will always try to do
And if you ever find a love for me
in your heart

My love is waiting in return


Accept Me

The very qualities
that first attracted you
to me,
now make you angry
and you try so very hard
to change me.

The Creator is the only One
I want to please
knowing my sins
and faults so completely
yet still loves and accepts me
exactly as I am.
Oh, why can't you?

I want to change me
and mold me;
With Divine Love
and guidance
I can only become
better and better.

Accept me and love me
or leave me be
but please
don't stifle me,
don't keep me down.
That only makes me
want to leave.


Its Just a Look

I have not told you
in words
just how I feel
but then you
look at me
and I am sure you know

You never tell me
so why am I
so sure of you
I could be wrong
but then you
look at me
and everything is right again

Sometimes there are
people all around
and I feel alone
and apart from you
but then you
look at me
and I hear your thoughts
and feel your feelings

Its just a look.
