Words as an answer!
Time stands still,
a picture of you and I
there on the lawn!
Moments like these
I happen to treasure!
Verdant new vistas appear
in the here and now!
Traveling through time
I ask you to wait for me?
Nothing consoles
like a freindsip so true.
Taking the time for
your bright conversation.
Giving and taking
intelligent thought.
Only your words
can heal this great loneliness!
I've no one left
to fill this vast emptiness.
I've burned all my bridges
I'm counting on you.
You hold a key
that will heal
my gray days!
Don't walk away
I need a discussion.
Nothing else matters
your cognitions create
just what I need!
Leaving me breathless
with someting to hope for.
Extinguishing the desire
to end this existence.
Giving me peace
and real consolation.
No one knows
what your
sentiments mean to me.
Only you voice
can offer what's needed!
Please don't refuse me
your presence is paramount.
Only kind words
will stop this
dry empty feeling.
Setting me straight
this once again time.

Last Few Words: Living alone in my mind, I can't diffuse the darkness that I feel. It takes two people to create my sanity. Your words give me hope and offer the light. They see me through this sort of a confusion!
