Are You Coming Soon

If you see me there,
under a falling moon
Where the heart can mend
and the pain can end

Before a lonely sky,
where the morning cries
Will I hear your voice?
Will you come to me,
give your heart a choice?
And when the moon travels far,
will you stay away,
as I watch it die
near a burning star

To lose this love,
in an unkind night
Filled with watery eyes
and no delight
Will you see me there,
under a falling moon?
Are you coming soon?

And if you do ,
will the sun finally rise
from the days so long
when our love was wrong
and we lost our song
are you coming soon
are you coming soon

A melancholy, pensive poem of hopeful longing, Frederic. I really like the repetition of your phrase "are you coming soon?" Congratulations on your win.
