Two glasses on the table, but only one was filled tonight,
The empty place seats no one to share my candlelight.
I whisper your name softly to remember I have a voice -
Aching and alone again, but not by my own choice
The music plays on faithfully - a dance for only one?
There is no one to seduce me when the song is done.
All that I could ask for and I have but just one dream:
To have you here beside me and all that it would mean.
The moon outside my window as I prepare to go to bed
Alone: no love beside me - just the one inside my head!
But I am not really alone and these rooms are not so hollow
For wherever one's mind wanders, the heart will surely follow.I am really there with you wherever you may be -
I just can't help but wonder - Are you ever here with me?©1997 poetheart
