Your words were like a revelation
Your whispers echoed in chambers
Speaking to a heart thought vacated
Unknowingly in a most sincere truth
But by your absence and silence, since
And sadly to say I’ve fully concluded
You mistakenly woke a sleeping heart
The way light does to all darkness
Except all remained an eerie silence
So much so, doubt is all that spoke
In place of your mellifluous whispers
Leaving me a stupor of confoundment
As my eager heart listened attentively
But proof in in the pudding of nothing
Your voice, a passing breeze in chimes
Its bitterness was- hard to swallow and
Hope, has all but vanquished now
Fruited reality has finally resonated
Twas not my heart you were calling
I’m not the destiny you’ve long sought
And you’re not- my dreamed saving angel
Who’s tender lips would bring me breath
And my soul a redeeming chance- to love
Though I would’ve still dared to follow
Your image, your whispers, your touch
Because love is always worth the risk
If- you know its love your dealing with
Yet my heart- can still dream me a dream
As I lay it back down, relenting it…to sleep
