As the clock ticks...

As the clock ticks...

                                                 

There you stood in the passage way, 

Looking beautiful and enticing as ever,

You make my heart gush with excitement of the endless possibilities that await,

You are the reason, I smiled as I drove through the busy streets 

I see your silhouette at a distance, 

Patiently as I wait for the end of dawn,

What seems like an endless wait,

You are the reason, I smiled as the sun glared into my eye

Friday, I can now see your ethereal beauty

I long to embrace you,

To bathe in that everlasting glory that you bring forth

You are the reason, I smiled today
