    Expectant heart

     I was waiting for you
    but you never came,
    expectant heart
    a burning flame.

    My love I've stored for
    a hundred years,
    is waiting now through
    these ancient tears.

    Letters written so long before
    my day,seem to be within me
    at this moment,
    finding ways to come alive
    with pen I make atonement.

    Love is the deepest part of me
    that extends beyond my knowing,
    reaching out beyond my spirit
    that is somehow glowing.

    Two souls drifting through
    time and space-
    lost lovers so once entwined,
    now wait still longer yet, with grace.
    No greater love to find..............

    Your Gothic style writing has made me a "dark fan" of your work, leaving me breathless as if death has sucked the life out of my lungs.
