Empty City

How does a city full of people seem so empty? An essence of ghost town rather fills the atmosphere.
Empty and silent they all rest. The lights beg for couples to dance under them. Sadly some of us are alone and still haven’t found anyone. So the chairs remain empty and useless. Slowly absorbing the cold air around it. 

But the heart grows founder as it thirst for love continues on every corner. They don’t realize what is right in front of them. Love has been there all along and hasn’t left. It awaits patiently as a ghost in the air for one to merely catch glimpse of it. Waiting and watching.

Moab Nights






The stars stranded together
One by one they light a candle
To brighten cold nights.
Many I have missed.
As your ghost haunts my heart.
Forever...

I wish we were alone.
I need to be by you.
My heart longs for your kiss.
I crave the arms I loved years ago.
But times have changed.
The nights creeped in.
The days grew long.
As a sea grew between us,
I told myself when we met...
I would never let you go.
A voice from behind said;
 "Forever in your heart he is yours."
From then on a journey began.
We grew in each other's company,
Then the fork in the road grew between us.
My last night with you would come to an end.
I hugged you for the last time.
The hardest goodbye.
I watch your hand leave mine.
For what it seemed like forever.
Until...
