Aug
Our days together have fled so quickly,
Swifter than the eagle's flight.
Yet all have been so filled with meaning,
They enchant my soul like roses in blooming.

How shall I explain what you are to me?
T'would be like trying to paint the sunrise.
Changing hues of light shifting across water,
Dew sparkling like diamonds on leaves that stir.

I have believed in you for your worth as a person
From the moment that I met you.
And have understood your fight to be uniquely you,
No matter what the cost that would surely ensue.

All I want is to help, you won't let me inside,
For the walls you have built, you have set there in pride.

You possess sweet simplicity, that of a child,
Yet wear peace like a King's velvet robe.
You ventured through lands where others dared not
Unknowing, but determined to win your own slot.

I have loved every moment of being with you,
Yet my heart aches in misunderstanding.
For I yearn to be with you, walk by your side
To ease any pain that afflicted your life.

All I want is to help, you won't let me inside,
For the walls you have built, have a span far too wide.

And now I am standing here watching you go,
Crying inside for I love you so.
Still always I will pray for your soul and your mind,
And that joy and contentment one day you will find.
