My Wait Begins Again

Uncategorized 1 Minute

I turn my collar up against the wind,

 and place my eyes along the skyline

 

Hoping in the twilight for some sign of you

 —a colder truth I’ve never known

 

I pull my jacket tight across my chest

 and watch the waves crash upon your shadow

 

Knowing the tide is like your receding heart

 —washing my footsteps from the sand

 

The sun has now gone, the moon in flight,

 and my hopes rise o’er the waves

 

My collar frozen, my soul on fire

  —as my wait begins again
