Astral Whispers

 Astral Whispers


(A lone voice whispers)


Although your beauty may fade with age


Although the shadows may slowly appear


Although your smiles may diminish in numbers


Although your inner sun

May have ebbed and lost its shine


Although I may not say it often


Although my mind may be elsewhere


Lift up your tired heart and relight your fires


Erase the numbers to regain the sharpness


Ignore the changes

Although you may think you've lost your inner shine


Carry this wondrous prose just deep within that beautiful mind


A simple thought I just send


Hold my hand for I'm glad you're still mine


Surreptitiously beyond the greyest of skies


For I am yours beyond what people say and conspire


Here I still stand with glazed eyes lit


Lips pursed looking for my own loving nurse


To ignite my fires


For I breathe in your shadows


I walk in your footsteps just craving your tears as surely as the Lord wept


May you always be mine my divine gift


Whose Love bestows my life with so much happiness and bliss


For if you leave me


Inside you leave me to slowly wither and die


It's why I follow

For I bring 


Catharsis 

A gift


To keep your eyes

Lit
