Take Me Away

In the heavens I look deeply at night seeking what I may see penetrating unending vastness with my eyes and heart I seek All else fades away into the night as my search continues for hours on end passing by stars, planets and solar systems I look searching for the one I long deeply for For on this earth is where I am but elsewhere is where I long to be heartache and crying are my daily companions without these ... I could gladly be Is it me or do others feel this way? That this is not where I am suppose to be For I long for a place, that in my mind, I can see yet seems so far from reality I call out crying into the night my soul does deeply ache come take me away from this horrid plight that I may be ever so sweetly consoled So life is not that exciting to me here when I look to the heavens, I see a greater, more glorious, spacious place that was prepared just for me But alas, just as everyone, I must wait for the day when my love, my beloved arrives in His glory it is then that He will take me away so to the heavens I continue to gaze
