Mists of Heaven

I sat there

still

unmoving

watching the day

turn to night

Watching the water

flow

ceaselessly

under the bridges

out of sight

Watching the sand

slip

my grasp

into the fog

without a fight


I didn't feel you

but you came

tenderly

like the caress

of the breeze

soothing my plight

Taking my pain

my hurt

my tears

holding me up

till

all is right

And I sat there

not knowing

when

a vagrant smile

stealthily

touched my lips

I sat there

till

unnoticed

the dark

once again

had turned to light
