Waiting for Departure, Alone on a Bench

Waiting for Departure, Alone on a Bench

Summer’s evening, gibbous moon,

radiance overflowing,

collective souls on display,

the sky above is glowing.

Spirits pass in front of me,

they’re travelling to the light,

adding to the brilliance of

the orb that sails the night.

and there upon that full moons rise

above the azure skies,

my soul mate Kath waits for me

where spirits nebulize.

I hear her essence call to me

by thoughts that carry vision

reflections from our memories

reminds there’s no division.

For scrolls of time hold our flame

they’re bound by gold and teal,

forever blending both our names

and mutual love we feel.

I watch the moon pass over me

return to western skies,

releasing essence heaven bound,

towards the new sunrise.

And so this journey carries on,

for death is not the end

we’ll meet again on distant shore

where souls rejoin and mend.
