Waiting

Waiting

*

* The endless days with no escape

Thoughts of you in distant place

One picture printed on my mind

Eyes closed or open I see your face.

* **

Joy and sadness fill my days

My heart and soul are aching.

I long to see you soon again

To end the eternal waiting.

I've become a stranger to myself

A stranger I now know.

I am the one I used to be

So many years ago.

*

Emotions I thought I never had

Have now come shining through.

The life that glows within me now

Could be because of you.
