My future days

dwindle

 

ONE HEART – NOT TWO

ONE HEART – NOT TWO

I love to see you smile

when I finally am awake

 

 

but then I have to pinch myself

so I know there’s no mistake

 

IN LOVE WITH A MUSE (MY CALLIOPE) – ENCORE

By Charles Robert Lindholm   2-24-2017   4:50 a.m.

 I wait for her each morning

in the backside of the night

in the final hours of darkness

just before, the dawn’s first light

 I long for her arrival

so in darkness I can see

and I listen like a lover

to her whispered words

for me

I believe in the light
that isn’t shining yet
I believe in the dawn
of a brand new day 

The darkness surrounds me
the silence is deafening
