What do you do
When the essence
Of someone stays
Brings you to your knees
And you pine for them for days
Like the last thing that you'll need
Their look of trust
Constant and unafraid
The light of sun shines through them
Renewal like the day
What to do...
What does one do
When one wishes to spend life's moments with them
Looking at you that way
When the words cannot express
You simply wish
It were you upon their chest that lays
And allow the winters day to fade
For pure passion
And ecstasy
To do to you what may
What to do...
What does one do
If there is anything to be taught
It is the lesson, time
To lose the passion
And enter to sublime
To have patience
And trust
For the universe to have it's way
Although you wait for them
Their words upon you remain
And on their last departure
You long for them for days
Until the fire burns
And you ask the cosmic
Pray
For sweet
Reminiscence
Of times that were short
But long passed to ones own dismay
And in the end of eternal time
You wonder
If it
Can ever be the same.
What to do...
What does one do.
What to do...
What does one do.
