My Long Wait Must End

It rarely rains
on that dusty road,
trees turns to auburn and gleem...
fluttering to the brilliant light,
which dominates the night sky;
my unheard footsteps don't make a mere sound,
they'll vanish like these words that  I whisper...

My long wait must end soon,
another storm may approach suddenly
on my calm horizon, ingnoring time, 
and erase every beautiful feeling 
shared with the ablazed moon;
a secret that keeps me going...

Nobody ever walks
on the solitary road of  my backwoods,
the silent  owls rest
on rough brenches
and partake of my open sadness;
they sympathetically stare,
but don't question a bit 
my unintelligible glare...

My long wait must end soon
and there's no explanation 
for the undubted words I'm speaking;
a farewell to the assumption
of an illusion that I'm not identifying,
to decribe the agonizing truth...
