Please Wait
Please Wait
For you I long tearing my very soul
no more a man am I
but an empty shell of what I once was
wait for me in yonder lands
i can only hope
for i come to you in time allowed
hands and knees I'll crawl
through thorns and thickets
wade mire and stench if need be
no horse can travel swift enough
no wing shall fly high enough
i come to you enveloped in love
wait for me under the tree
your heart making it grow
shining as a fallen star
for there i shall see you
in all your splendor
all that together we are
