Waiting

Waiting for a beam of light to shine on window pane
Wishing for a breath of air to whisk away the haze
Hoping every moment for a lessening of rain
Believing any second you will fall into my gaze

The stars above do glisten like the twinkle in your eyes
And wind does blow as steadily as pounds the blood in me
Desire builds beneath my breast like forest mountains rise
Atop the peak of love sustained is where I long to be

Step into the clearing, my elusive wanderer
Bring to me the company I cherish and adore
Come and lay beside me now, my one heart's conqueror
Stay, that I may wait and wish and hope and pine no more
