Patience
whispered in my ear
but no-one is there
i feel you waiting
for me
leading me carefully
toward something
still i hesitate
if this is truth
if my mind does not trick me
you are all i have
all i wish
to believe in
uncertainty tears at my soul
i hear the music
and begin the dance
alone
feeling your arms
gathering me inside
holding me
calming
there is no fear
not with you
only joy and love
here with you
i have hope
that among the masses
i am something beyond
a mere speck
perhaps i shine sometimes
like sunlight
on a sliver of glass
but only
with you
as the sun.
