Eternity and a Day

Eternity I waited. Waiting for us to be together.
Now it is tomorrow. My heart, no longer at bay.
It is now I know.
I waited an eternity and a day.

It seems like so long ago, that we first spoke.
My price was waiting an eternity. I had to pay.
For you, I happily waited.
I waited this eternity and a day.

The path walked was long and rocky.
And, to you, my goddess, I pray.
Let me wait no longer.
I waited my eternity and a day.

I have now paid my dues, and cast off what I owe.
So I wait, in reverence, to hear you say.
You waited long enough.
You waited an eternity and a day.

I had the choice to move on and leave you forever.
But it's my heart to choose, and do what I may.
I would never give up.
Even over an eternity and a day.

You always heard me, singing my tunes happily.
Simply waiting, while whistling 'My Way'.
But now this time is over.
I just waited an eternity and a day.

Sitting and thinking and waiting and hoping.
Just letting time pass as I let the piano play.
I am now ecstatic.
It has passed an eternity and a day.

I had the choice. An angel or a demon.
My decision made, I just lay.
Wishing to fast forward.
Past that eternity and a day.

The sun didn't always shine around me or keep me warm.
But I kept my smile, 'bright and gay'.
I knew I only had to wait,
An eternity and a day.

Watching time fly and seeing things grow in their own time.
I lovingly watched the horses chewing the hay.
I never begrudged them.
Even if I had to wait an eternity and a day.

But now it is all over, I know this deep within my heart.
I know, because I felt the first sun ray.
This had to be the day after,
The eternity and a day.

So, now I am with you. Everything is beautifully seen.
And, now, to you, my love, I can convey.
It has now overshot that traumatic,
Eternity and a day.

I am in bliss. There is no words to describe it.
I am not simply alright, good or okay.
I am in heaven.
All because I waited my eternity and a day.

((Dedicated to my timeless angel...))
