Trapped

Indeed, I hear your whisper in my ear -
Raising the tiny hairs on my nape;
Swallowing slowly, as not to miss a drop -
From what is it, you so long to escape?

Mesmerized, I am waiting for the flow -
The images and sounds you wish to share;
At warp speed, the feed of the story -
Brought to this point by doom and despair.

Time, for you, having stood endless still -
Centuries and ages have long been past;
The peace you need is no longer here -
Lost in the darkness, ever so vast.

Someone to tell you where she awaits -
Forever, alone, you have so waited;
Lost in the flow of things gone wrong -
And all you hadn't anticipated.

In the light of love she patiently waits -
All you waited so long here to find;
Waiting over there, while you were here -
Rise up - leave now this world behind.

Back to the glory from wince you came -
Healing and peace await you there;
Love in abundance for you evermore -
Just for you, I give this prayer.
