The Watchers


Taking my turn 

To look through the Scrying Glass


As my given 

Time candle burns


Whenever I see 

You


I miss you

Like the Sun


Misses the Moon

On a cloudy Sunday

Afternoon


Miss

Your sweet smile


As wide as a country mile


Miss

Your voice


And tender tones

To beguile

.

And as my time candle

Burns

Low


As Jerome

Nods


Waiting his go


In that brief

Nanosecond


We share a linked

Thought

That we all know


As much as the

Living miss 

The Dead


We too 

Miss those 

Tranquil moments


Left for all

Eternity


Unsaid
