learning to wait

what if i wanted to be your new story
sitting in our chairs at the edge of the pond
feeling the light soften each year that goes by
sipping lagavulin in bell-shaped glasses

today i found this great blue hunched in the wind
and i felt my own back bowed up against change...

although what we have is all that you longed for
i try to tell you but no words will come out

if love marked as true can never be undone
then all that i need is this moment i hold
and all that you need is the silence i keep
