There is Only...

In my heart’s eye
I am breathless
And in the morning
I am blind
To what lies beyond
Behind

There is only…

In my mind’s eye
I am oblivious
And in the evening
I am raptured
In everything
Every moment

There is only…

Take me in yourself
If only for a moment
And in that moment I will be
I will be
Take in all of me
And leave me with a feeling
Moments never linger
But your touch will remain

Loneliness is barren
And I am a landscape
So paint your portrait on me
And I will sigh no more

Loneliness is frightful
And I am ever weary
So wrap your warmth around me
And I was deny no more

As the frost on the tree tops
I want to linger
Until the painful sun
Melts away
My delight

There is only…

As the dew on mountains
I want to caress you
Until I melt away
As I melt
Away

There is only…

So take me in yourself
If only for a moment
And in that moment I will be
I will be
Take in all of me
And leave me with a feeling
Moments never linger
But your touch will remain

And you will be my everything
And I will be your something
And we will be the things
We both are longing for
What we’ve been searching for…

There is only…

absolutely beautiful... a gorgeous cadence and such a lovely emotion in your words. "So paint your portrait on me And I will sigh no more" ... divine. :)

I want to smile because this is so beautiful but I can't... this tore at the emptiness inside. I caught myself seconds before a deep sigh and now its all bottled in my soul. :::OLd

"Loneliness is barren And I am a landscape So paint your portrait on me And I will sigh no more" Oh for the love of the Gods can I relate with this. I think sometimes anything would be better than being alone.

This really reeks of momentary satisfaction and sometimes that's good enough but in the long run I think it leaves us more empty. Like the Fonz. Loved this:) ~Ryan
