"TILL SOMEDAY. . . ."
written by Jim~the~Poet

SOMEDAY WHEN I OUTSTRETCH MY ARMS 
I WILL TOUCH HER TENDER SKIN
AND WITHOUT TAKING OFF MY BLINDFOLDS
I WILL KNOW IT COULD BE ONLY HER....


SOMEDAY HER WARM SMILE
I WILL ALLOW TO PERMEATE MY MASK
AND I WILL SEE MY DREAMS
FINALLY GIVING WAY 
TO THE SUNLIGHT OF REALITY


SOMEDAY I WILL STOP AND WATCH
WATCH HER FOR HOURS 
KNOWING EVERY REASON
SINGING EVERY RHYME
AND PAINT HER BEING ON EVERY CELL I BEAR
CHANTING EVERY WORD 
WHICH MY MIND CAN HEAR 


YES SOMEDAY IN THIS LIFE
I SHALL FINALLY EMBRACE A RELIGION
AND GIVE WINGS TO MY DESIRES
PULLING OUT THE ANCHOR FROM THE SHORE
SETTING MY BOAT TO THE BREEZE


TILL I REVISIT
SUCH TIME IN THIS LIFE
I PRAY I DO NOT FORGET
THE TORRID POWER OF HOPE


AND IN MOMENTS OF UNKINDLED DARKNESS
WHEN I AM FIGHTING TO GAIN
MY PEACE OF MIND
I SHALL LOOK UPON YOUR SHOULDER
TO LAY AT EASE MY RESTLESS MIND...


AND IN MY NEEDY HOUR 
I HOPE I HAVE IN YOU A FRIEND
WHO WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE
IN TERMS OF SOFT SPOKEN WORDS
AND A SOOTHING EAR
BUT MOST OF ALL BECAUSE HE IS NEAR......

LOVE..
JIMTHEPOET
