Waiting

I will wait,  

In the stillness of time,  

With echoes of your laughter,  

And the warmth of your smile.  

  

I am waiting,  

Through shadows and dreams,  

For the touch of your spirit,  

In the soft moonbeams.  

  

And I will love you,  

With a fierce, gentle fire,  

With all that I possess,  

You're my heart’s desire.  

  

Until this body turns to ash,  

And the stars call my name,  

I’ll search for you again,  

In the eternal flame.  

  

Through the valleys of silence,  

And the whispers of night,  

I’ll find you once more,  

In love’s endless light.
