My ghostly heartbeat echoes
as my voice leaves me,
alone.
To float wistfully
like the last lone cloud
of my being. Leaving me,
as it soars away.
Trying to weave into the place
between the right pair of ears.
To rest peacefully.
Unseen.
It swoops around,
knowing exactly where it needs to be.
Just needs to seek that one face
in a sea of millions.
The one that brightens
all of his dreams.
The cloud glides across
the thinning atmosphere,
to find a place where
its word can become real.
All the while
I moan silently, laying here,
as no voice is left,
no sound to express
the emptiness of this cloudless air
that sits around my head tonight,
and my dreams are offering no respite.
For that light doesn't appear in my sky.
I sigh, a dry sigh,
no air left in my lungs to fly.
All the while
the cloud floats effortlessly
across the hills and valleys.
Underneath the blanket
of a million candles,
and their silver companion
in the sky.
I sit; a tear fills my eye.
I blink the downpour
onto my cheek,
where I let it streak down my face
like a shooting star,
I wish. I wish. I wish for us
to be like the stars and moon,
companions on a journey through space.
The cloud sees a glow,
a smile flowing across that face,
that heavenly place
where angels would bow to the grace.
Eyes that shine
prettier than diamonds
or gems illuminated by luna light.
It swoops down, whispers
a sentence spoken so many times
to an empty sky,
a sentence that has lived
silently over the years.
A sentence he feared,
for it could rip his heart in two.
A sentence just meant for you.
Just three words that arise
like sunshine on a summer morn,
together they form a kiss
three words, worn
but so true.
A whisper to lovelorn skies
to live between your ears
for all time.
