Life’s Unfinished Chapters

Life’s Unfinished Chapters

 

I just exited out this back door, 

This back door I was standing in, 

I just exited out this back door 

This back door I just walked through, 

You've been, 

You've been waiting, 

I've been waiting, waiting so long for you 

Waiting so long for an opportunity, 

An opportunity of true love, 

True love, watching, seeing 

Seeing true love, true love come my way, 

Come my way and dance right into my life

Life's Unfinished Chapters

This book, this book of love, 

This book called love, 

Love it sits on its shelf, 

A shelved journal of words 

Words just waiting to be opened 

Opened and read, reading

Reading Its sea blown pages 

Blown winds, sea blown pages

Winds dancing in the irises of your eyes

Bringing your eyes to page 135, 

Page 135 dances upon your heart,

Our hearts read where I've been, 

Where I'm willing to let my heart take you and I

Life's Unfinished Chapters

It has So many past dues 

So many past dues I don't want to look back, 

I don't want to look back at all

All I want you to do

All I want you to do is move forward, 

Forward I hear you say, but I can't 

I can not move forward until I finish your book

The one you started, 

You start reading all over again 

All over again 

Again from page one to one-thirty-five, 

Only to start crying, 

Crying, you hear my soft whisper

Life's Unfinished Chapters

There’s no reason to cry, it’s just a summer rain

A summer rain falling upon

Upon life's unfinished chapters

Come over here,

Come over here, let me wipe your tears

A journal of loves soaked tears

Loves soaked pages of tears

Tears and more pages 

Pages of all you have left to show 

Left to show how much you loved him

Your soul is a spirit of beauty, 

A spirit of beauty looking down, 

Looking down upon you, closing the book

Life's Unfinished Chapters

Watching the words disappear into the air

Watching the words disappear into thin air

Looking up, smiling, 

Seeing me standing there beside you, 

I whisper

Take my hand, take my hand love

Lights are turned down low

We look into each others eyes

I pick you up, and and carry you to a bed 

A bed made for two

Two souls become one, the moon closes it’s eyes

We both smile, 

We both smile and whisper into one another’s ear

 

I love you

 

Two souls in motion 

In motion with each other, 

Embracing what will become a memory in time

A memory in time

No longer do we have to wait

No longer do we have to wait for a door

Wait for a door to open 

You no longer have to wait by the door 

True love has found you

Our heart's, have found each other,

Only a heart beat away, love shared

Love shared bringing in a new chapter

A new chapter in life

Life's Unfinished Chapters

No longer a memory, 

No longer a memory, 

A heart beat brought to life, 

Conceived by a gift 

A gift of a higher power 

A higher power of what love truly is

Two souls

A man and a woman

We complete that of love

We both can now re-open the book 

Re-open and begin writing a new story of love

A story of love to continue 

What he has not been able to finish
