Dimly Lit Lanterns In The Night
I am full with everything
I have not said.
And so-
I call, upon my talent,
With all sincerity in my heart;
That the song in your soul
May mirror mine.
When you let love in
It does not trickle
But pours.
If I hold secrets
Should I keep them
To heart or whisper them
While holding you when
The night is long.
Saying everything
With both wonder
And silence that
I have waited to say.
I swear to keep you
Close, and follow you
When my heart knows
It needs you most,
Now: it can be said
All is well again
Even when the world
Is ending. I found
You living muse,
In the lantern
You held for me
In the night
As my heart
Stumbled into
Your awaiting arms
