Sheltered From The Rain

by Chris Sheffler - Aries

The waves crash against the tranquil shore,
I stare into your eyes to see the one who I adore,
feeling your heart beat in sync with mine,
at this moment now, I feel like everything is fine,
breathing in this moment to hold it dear,
for I know this is nothing but a dream and you are not near,
my heart shatters with each passing day,
there’s nothing left in this heart that I have to say,
with everything to lose and nothing to gain,
I hoped you would see me and realize my pain,
perhaps you have, and you feel the same,
but most likely not, you don’t even know my name,
a hush from lips that are so pale and blue,
when love is forgotten, then what is true?
A hope or a wish, a memory or a dream,
none are forever, none are what they ever seem,
this shall never be more then a fantasy,
and when reality awakens, shall you see me?
You love is a thing that I’ve waited for,
the waves crash against the tranquil shore...
