Waiting For Forever

Today is the biggest day in my life,
I promised I'd meet you today,
Its been eight years since the day,
Since the day we found each other.

Today I will unify us forever,
I just can't wait any longer,
I will unify you and me,
In the holiest matrimony.

As I look at the ring,
The ring of engagement,
My heart sings with joy,
anticipating our union.

I place the ring in my pocket,
And walk out of my home,
And journey towards yours,
Yearning for your embrace.

I knocked upon your door,
There was no answer,
I threw rocks at your window,
Still I was left unanswered.

I would sit by the front door,
Await you to return to me,
Return from your journey,
One you took without me.

As I'd wait upon your doormat,
I'd look at two women talking,
Talking with a voice of sorrow,
And with eyes in pain for me.

As they'd whisper, they didn't know,
That every word was crystal clear,
"look, a true lover sits yonder,
She died years ago, yet he waits."
