Couldawouldashoulda...

by Michael C. Shivar

Eternity comes and goes
And it’s just another day
It’s just another change of clothes
And you're still so far away


The nights are cold and lonely
I am alone inside my mind
I want you to be here with me
But it is not the appropriate time


I already miss the sweet words you’ve said
And I long for the sound of your voice
I try not to think about you too much
But it seems I haven’t a choice


Because I don’t see you and me
But I do see us and we
I remember you hand and thinking
What it would be to wear my ring


Everyday gets a little longer
With the time we spend apart
Everyday comes a little closer
To a time we can share our hearts


And I thank God for you
I really do
As I stare out the window 
Into a sky of blue
