With Me.

Source

I sit upon this corner of mine
I sit and watch the sands of time
I hear raindrops sway and fall
I listen anticipating your call

I take a trip to the city with you
I watch skyscrapers melt into the evening blue
I wonder when the stars will start to shine
I know they’ll illuminate any blessings you can find

I like to walk slowly savoring the day
I like to feel the cool gale in the month of May
I sometimes sing and hum a familiar melody
I enjoy napping beneath a lush palm tree

I open books with words of wisdom
I seek out any opportunity for carefree fun
I keep my eyes open wide for passing butterflies
I stay up all night just to watch the sunrise

I feel a serene peaceful bliss
I feel it when I remember the softness of your kiss
I sip my cup of chamomile tea -
I wish, you were here sharing it with me
