Can You Choose

Can you choose..

It is anxiety that makes your day

Lost in a forest of noise

No answer, no moonlight

Darkness, its guide is blind..

A forest tangled with suspicions

And lies beyond measure

A day wetting its hems with the night

And you stand waiting

The lovers have passed, their voices lost

Among the paths of longing

No echo of a voice, no song to bridge the distances

And you. Still stand waiting

And what waiting..

Does the barren land ever bloom with roses?

No waiting then.. take your words and go

Raise your voice so you may hear its echo

O heart that holds nothing but love..

Breath has grown tight within you

And love itself has grown tight.. so do not wait
