Longing

To fly to you though they berate me

My heart, yearns, of lately

The crystal rain that define this longing

Nearly sent my pulse

Now sounding.

To see you sleeping gracefully

I’d give the world for this small plea

To feel those lips that still astounds me

I’d wrench my chest of life still pounding

To feel your arms clasped tight about me

Or simply, I to glance and see you

Or hope to sleep and wake anew

To cherubs singing,

Where roses bloom

And that crystal rain that falls asunder

Shall no more set my soul to plunder.
