A Day in White

I would,

Marry you in white

And lay to rest all of my sins

 

I would,

Stand in shallow light

And gaze back at own my reflection

 

And nod at her,

with loving admiration

 

For you, and only you

I would forget what he had done

And become brand new

A shiny piece of gold

Grown from a silver lined cloud

 

In the still light

Made from a sun’s single ray

I will wait

And become clean

A pureness so deep

That even my insides will shine

 

For all the storms weathered

And for the violent thunder crashes

I have always found shelter in you

The bell that rings

And stirs my quiet slumber

Is the same one that draws me back to you

 

So here I stand

Heart in hand

And soul in mouth

Ready to walk with love

And take my place among the roses and the romantics
