Flickering Light (K is for Kristin)A Poem by Abdul Batin Osman BeyFor the woman who has captured my mind, body, and soul, with a bit of life reflectionThe light is flickering Just like my life In a second I’ll be gone Faster than a melody in a pop song So sit with me above the sunrise Rest your head on my shoulder and hold my hand We can speak without words Kristen you ease my worried mind A rainbow appears No telling how long it’ll stay Our love binds us together Never forget all we have is today Tomorrow is a never coming someday I say a silent prayer to whomever Hoping that our eyes will close the same second Kristen you light up my heart I’m not sure why I write I seem to always ramble on None of my mumbled words will express Exactly what you mean to me Words evaporate the second they are spoken Smoke rings that become nothing Even our shells will become less than dust Kristen my essence belongs to you I’ll hold you in silent meditation Keep you from the world falling Hours drink away like years At a rate so fast it seems like slow motion Still all my feelings I can’t hide Watching the leaves twist by our bedside Two spirits dancing the spiral waltz Kristen all I want is you Kristen I’ll spend my eternal life with you © 2012 Abdul Batin Osman BeyAuthor's Note
