Me To You

And at long last,
I am finally able to see you.
This wonderful person,
On the other end of the line,
Actually in person,
In front of me here.

Just from listening to you,
And reading you before,
I was for certain,
Not to be disappointed,
And I wasn't.

You are as glorious as you seemed,
You are as pretty as I could have imagined,
And right there and then,
I had fallen further down this steep cliff,
Then where I had fallen to before.

I may not have come across this way,
Being as though I held back,
That is just the way I am,
I don't think I could go much faster,
I wanted to see what you were like,
Now that has passed and I would like to continue.

I would like to offer you,
Everything I am.

I am a person who will listen,
To whatever you want to say.

I am a hand that you can hold,
For the times you are in need of help,
Hold as hard as you need,
Cause I am not going to break.

If you need to be held,
For protection or for warmth,
I wouldn't hesitate to do so,
And I'd never want to let go.

Time is nothing to me,
I'm open as late as you need,
A twenty-four seven if you will.

If you need someone to lean on,
In times of sadness,
I have a pair of shoulders to rest on,
You wouldn't even have to ask.

My door is always open,
But if it is locked,
You now have the key to my heart,
Use it if you wish.

All I ask of you,
Is please don't change,
And I won't change on you.

Washboard Blues

My favourite saying of late Is that I wanna cry. The world has been crumbling around The people The state of affairs The disbelief. I say the words Jokingly But there's a piece of me That would kindly accept A tear... Or two. There have been more days Than less That I could use a reset button. I would start it all again, There are times where I regret Everything. If I wanted to live with no regrets I probably could have done more I probably could have said more I should have meant more. Morbidity Mortality Time... All things weighing me down. There's this sudden end It's coming soon Sooner for some Not soon enough for others But it's coming. If I was to go right now Away Gone Left it all behind... I don't want anyone to think of me After the fact. I don't think many will Some might A passing glance Something to do But I'll be gone Somewhere more To where I'm supposed to be. Africa Asia Europe Or Beyond. I haven't quite decided Yet But I will.

Snowy Interval

Our winter is right around the corner And the thought takes me back To when we found ourselves Last time around In the coldest of days. Even in those harshest of elements In the coldest of all the months I couldn't feel the chill Because between your smile and your words They were the best of days. And just like the unpredictable Alberta weather The storms rolled in I tried to stand my ground Withstand the worst of what it could throw Until I found the peace to know the storm was me. The summer months were devastating The air was dry The sun was unrelenting It was a record year But the chill in the empty hole was all I knew. The leaves have been falling awhile The mind wanders when unchecked Smelling the weather changing Has the heart reeling For another one of those great snowy intervals.

Not Yet

I'm trying to resist It shouldn't really happen I don't even know for sure. It's a good thing Not knowing keeps me from falling Too far from too much.
