Journal Of A Man Not Here

Every night the moon appears in the sky.

Sure enough as the stars arise

My cage, my tomb, my existence forbids me

But every twilight she descends before thee.

My world beyond her own for I am gone into her unknown

She comes to the old cemetary where I reside

Each moment she spends here her harp is by her side

The song she plays repeats in my mind

The notes, the tune, her voice echoing in time

I wonder why she is drawn here

Can she sense my head upon her shoulder ?

Can she feel my arms wrapping around her?

Can she tell I fight off the darkness for her?

For that is why I must dwell

Waiting, watching, protecting the woman destined to be mine

Born in separate times

That is the song she sings

That is the moral she brings

That is the reason I am left behind

My mission is the test of time

Who says love can not withstand a mountains climb?

If she only knew how much I long for her touch

To smell her skin and caress the body I yearn for so much

Oh how I want that moment to come

Where her time descends

When she can hear my voice

When I can sing for her

When she can see me...

I know she feels my presence...

Is it love that strives her blessings for thee?

Is it the love we share that brings my moonlit soul mate upon me?
