A New Love in the Making

A New Love in the Making
By June   4/3/2000

As I sit here, listening to the gentle droplets of the rain
Playing it's melodical exit as the finale to it's previous deluge
My brain picks up images that flashes through my mind
Each tune of nature speaks your name, and whispers of our interlude

My world had darkened beyond darkness, it had become empty
Every fleeting piece of happiness had exploded and became another universe
One that I could not be a part of; One where I wished I was
And my own shallow grave was becoming deeper and my life held no verse

Our meeting must have been predestined
I can not see such fortune as to have immediate gratification
For all prayers I had prayed, and wishes I had made, materialized
And here you are, my message.  No longer the messenger of realization

My first embrace of life after sleeping with death for so long
Shook my senses almost to the reeling point; I gasped!
The butterflies in my stomach grew to be Whooping Cranes
Pecking at my heart, knowing love was within grasp

To be able to call out your name and no other
To exhalt in your touch and accept all the freshness of rebirth
For this, the labor pains of my resurrection was worth it!
For this is the fruit of faith, My reason for remaining on this earth

I had my doubts that love would enter again into my heart
This reasoning alone prevented me from leaving grief
It was my decision to break away and find life again
And I shall live it, for this journey is all but too brief!
