So, here I stand
mentally preparing
for this future unknown,
which I find in face.
When there was you,
in my heart,
my life,
my arms,
I thought I knew just what,
this future might look like.
From this mess,
it has all become,
I have not a clue,
just what might materialize
before my very eyes,
in times yet to be seen.
Genie in that bottle,
grant me this wish,
deliver me from this evil.
Take me to a place,
where words have meaning,
where promises are promised,
and followed through to end.
Where love,
commitment
and conviction
reign supreme.
Take me to this place
I thought I had found,
and if no such place exists,
tease me no more,
with these dreams of mine,
that I may one day reach
such heavenly place,
while still earthly bound.
