Love Poem: After All This Time

After All This Time

In all these years I thought you were gone,
I grieved for you and prayed for the strength that 
I could and would go on.
I hoped and prayed that this was just a bad dream,
That I would open my eyes and life would go on as it had been.
But unfortunately  that was not to be, 
For when I opened my eyes I was brought back to reality.
And so  I face  all this time all alone,
Searching and hoping  for a place where I  can belong. 
In the distance I hear the mountains call out to me, 
Saying over and over come to the mountains my lady. 
They beckon me to come home,
To come home where I belong.
It is there I know you’re waiting for me, 
Waiting on the mountain for your lady.
