Anticipation

Anticipation

 

 

With lucidity

I call your name

 

With a bell’s tone

You ring back my own

 

I see you

Knowing

Anticipating how you’ll look

Curiosity flooding my horizon

 

You are obscured

By a cloak of doubt

By times I should fear to hold

By love that is cut but doesn’t end

 

I see through your veil

A vignette enclosing your figure

My destination

Clear as day

Yet dark as night

 

Though conspiracies of ravens

Separate the convergence of our times

 

I hear the echoes of times past

Their wills propelling me forward

 

I will not sprint in your direction

But walk with persistence

 

We will meet someday

My fate is inevitable

 

With grace, I shall hold your hand

And we shall find tomorrow

 

Together
