Fireflys

I'm reaching out.
Lonely flower in the breeze.
A refugee on their knees.
For the lost page
Of our book.
A happy ending
Someone took.

Reaching out.
For a shell
To hear the sea.
A bell
That tolls for me.
I'm a single fallen leaf
In a churchyard of empty grief.

Searching
Silhouettes of the blind.
Dancing
Pirouettes of a crippled mind.

I'm reaching out.
For the moon.
And his stars, 
That he has strewn.
Like precious dice
To entice
Us gamblers of love.
Who look above
For our dreams to appear.
Fading in the atmosphere.
Parading a raging sky.

Yet I
Reach out.
For an angel
Of time gone by.
Who sang my soul a lullaby.
Igniting
My heart with his spark.
Like a Firefly, 
In the dark. 

It was easier before
when i felt like this
you were there to hold my hand,
and take my tears away.

Now my tears are falling
like the summer rains
I reach out with grasping hands
and theres nothing there but air.

Where are you? Where did you go?
Why did you leave me,
you left me all alone.

They tell me that your with me
But i dont see you here
They tell me your all around me
"just LIsten"
But i cant hear your voice.

I still reach out to you
and yet your never there.

Please oh please come back to me
I need your strenght and love.


this was written with a broken heart...and sometimes its feels that it will never be mended....I miss you Marcus, you left us so suddenly, and i never got the chance to say goodbye.
