TEARS OF PEARLS

Tossing and turning

fading in and out of sleep

my thoughts of you are constant

pearl tears like rain, I weep

How is it that i miss you so

Ever present in my dreams

Like the sun and moon, they fade away

An illusion of thoughts it seems

Never free from this elusive cage

my love for you is timeless

Never wavering or disappearing

My heartbeats, ever tireless

Will I ever hear your voice again?

Or will my mind just twist and twirl

In ever constant dreams

Where tears I weep are pearls

RIVER WATERS

In the silence of the waters

I ache for your loving smile

I close my eyes and dream of you

of being with you for just a while

In the silence of the waters

as I watch the ripples move

I remember silent whispers

and kisses ever smooth

In the silence of the waters

I dream, you dream of me

I dream of your tender fingers

and how they set me free

In the silence of the waters

when no one is close nor near

I look up to the sky and clouds

and whisper your name so dear

In the silence of the waters

Only love is what I hear

I wish with all my heart and more

you were here by my side so near

TIME

Its a matter of time really

When the sun rises for a new day

I think of you

When the bells toll twelve

I think of you

When the sun starts to sink into the night

I think of you

When the moon greets the stars

I think of you

And I think of you at the times in between

And of all those times

I miss you
