Gazing at the Ceiling

I am gazing at the ceiling

I need a wishing star

I’m praying for a miracle

To show me where you are

~~~

I imagine you in danger

Without me at your back

I fear a clue will come too late

Too late for me to act

~~~

It feels like days since you were here

Although it’s been just one

Around me sympathetic eyes

Whisper the end has come

~~~

I’ve had to pound, to rage aloud

While inside I just screamed

Been called a title ‘the White Knight’

By him – Dark King of dreams

~~~

But I feel more like Quixote

Fighting windmills hopelessly

Is it too late? What if you’re gone?

I wonder anxiously

~~~

But in my soul, I feel our bond

Your heart – my steady beat

And I will find you, partner

Then my quest will be complete
