Loner Lover

She has her heart reaching out for both the impossible and the possible.

Sweet little light knocks on my window

Up in the night I find your face,

your one bright, outstanding shadow

Waning in sight, but sadness in grace

My bare hands begin to pluck you
from my dangling thoughts in the air
The moment then picks the cue,
my heart follows you anywhere

I write a letter on a star to another
Though you don't live under my sky
If my possibilities succumb to shatter
At least those stars don't die

Loneliness must be discouraging
and life is not always a rose garden
but most times you emerge in my longing,
a dreamy sun ray to veil my burden

I grapple with days painting me blue
Sometimes I wish I was someone else
But it'd be unfortunate,
not loving someone that's you

Stay in love no matter what!
