Patience for the Waiting

It's quiet...
On the open sea,
silence echoes in the change
of tides between
you & she.

It's pale...
'Neath the midnight moonlight,
Milky Way masking prisms;
colors hide between
you & she.

     Love has a funny way of bridging gaps of absence, and
     Faith has a funny way of keeping sinking ships adrift.
     Adoration has a funny way of laying a foundation, &
     Trust has a way of catching the walls it knocks down.

It's warm...
Exploring deserted bodies,
radiate passion from inside
sheets lie between
you & she.

     Love has a funny way of bridging gaps of absence, and
     Faith has a funny way of keeping sinking ships adrift.
     Admiration has a funny way of laying a foundation, &
     Trust has a way of catching the walls it knocks down.

It's calm...
Drinking in candlelight,
desire to frame
moments shared between
you & me.

     Love has a funny way of bridging gaps of absence, and
     Faith has a funny way of keeping sinking ships adrift.
     Admiration has a funny way of laying a foundation, &
     Trust has a way of catching the walls it knocks down.
