Our Blessings

Photographs of days gone by

When it was only you and I

Sharing hopes and chasing dreams

Oh, how simple it all seemed

Our life, together, we grew as one

From morning light, to setting sun

Until the day another came

To carry on the family name

A bundle dressed in shades of blue

No longer only me and you

Then we added just one more

A blessing in pink, with ruffles galore

Two little humans, made from our love

We have been blessed, from Heaven above

She waits, among the evening mist

In the forest, a familiar place

Where she can sit in quiet thought

Longing for his sweet embrace

Each passing night grows longer

Still, she waits as time goes by

Silently, she’ll contemplate

Never knowing the reason why

Each time, he says ‘tomorrow’

He’ll return, a recurrent theme

And she’ll come back here, once again

Beguiled, by her fanciful dream

Eyes awaken in an ebony night

Shadowy movements dodging the light

Wondering what it is he sees here

Could it be her, the one he held near?

Darkness continues, playing its game

The silence whispering out his name

Brushing by him, in teasing allure

Wondering how much he can endure

She playfully invades his carnal dreams

Til sunlight through the window streams

The path before me

An uphill climb

A reminder I

Should take my time

And think about

What’s down the road

As I wander off the path

Unload, the many things

I keep inside

That stay with me

Til I decide

It’s time to let them

Slip away

And thoughts become

Memories, of yesterday

I really should be fast asleep

It’s funny, I’m not tired

The night has taken over me

The light of day, expired

 

There’s a spider crawling up my wall
He doesn’t notice me at all

Perhaps he’s uninspired
By the fact that I’m not tired

 

My brain is running on caffeine
It really should be in a dream

Is that truly what I desire?
Cause I’m really not that tired

 

I close my eyes and try to rest

Still, visions dance before me

Why do I even bother?

Now where’s that cup of coffee?

 

Sweet liquid gold is most required
Oh, did I mention I’m not tired?
