Today I am Born Unto You (06/15/1970)


I woke this morning to falling rain along with sounds to explore,

Falling rain relaxes me to a point of near exhaustion that I abhor,

Sounds of dripping water inside a room is not a sound to ignore,

My mind brings images in play of damage to the roof and more,

 

I escape the sound by thinking of an angel that’s within my heart,

My inner self thinks of loving you and how at last it’s time to depart,

I can’t refuse my heart to love you as I have done so from the start,

Your eyes pierced into my being as you smiled so tenderly to impart,

 

Your beautiful hazel eyes spoke truly with a visual whisper to me,

Those reciting my words to you ask can a whisper be a thing you see,

My heart is tuned to yours in such a way that you tune me so easily,

You’ve known without a notice when I would return home finally,

 

I seemed a million miles away from you yet I could feel your need,

I prayed so desperately at night to be sent home to you with speed,

Prayers answered in such a way through injury and internal bleed,

God blessed our love and sent me home so our love could proceed,

 

Your eyes sparkled of jewels upon hearing I was moving home at last,

At last I am coming to you, no one can keep us apart, the die is cast,

Four years of which my love for you has kept me alive as it grew fast,

Today I am born into a world of you to soon hear “I love you” at last.

The end. By Pat.
