A Beautiful Light
Long I waited, for the coffin to open,
To walk the earth once more,
To lay my eyes upon you again,
And love you until the world could no longer keep it in store.
As I walked amidst the crowd,
I felt alien, oh how much I longed for thee,
For I could be myself when with you, no longer shrewd,
But a kind, caring man, and the human I could never be.
Your innocent charm, your warm heart; I promised to love all I can,
Your child-like giggle, your kind and loving humanity,
But when I heard you talking to me about some other man,
I never thought that I would experience such cruelty.
Admiring from close and from afar, never going too far,
For fear I could have destroyed all that you love and know,
But the time was right; I did it with a heavy heart,
I brought back what had been locked away, in the hopes that our love would grow.
I hurt for what I took from you,
I only wanted to take care of you as best I could,
But I am not your father or your brother too,
For you, I was ready to die where I stood.
I parted with you, to finish that which I had begun,
A parting that would break my heart forever,
I told you that I should’ve entrusted him to you and be done,
But if I had a choice, if it would make things better…then never.
I was sentenced to eternal slumber, but I set you free,
But I did so knowing my love for you was so very true,
So even if you forget about me,
I will always continue to remember you.
As the butterfly of your spirit lay resting upon my hand,
I awoke to the day, its sun shining bright,
I remembered my promise to you, to love you all I can,
And as I gazed at our child, in a loving embrace, I said “what a beautiful light…”
