The Long Road Home

by haunted   Dec 20, 2007


Shadows fall and all I see is your face.
Tears rolling down like rivers of pain.
My heart hurts whenever we're apart,
Together forever bound by our love.
We share one Heart ... one Soul ... one Destiny.
Walking down this road with you,
My feet falter, it's true, but I know you're here by my side
So no matter how many miles it takes
Or how many obstacles bar the road, I know my journey leads to you.

But for now, my hope and love sustains me,
As sleep takes me into the night, and Darkness closes in around me.
In my dreams, I see a Light that is you,
Shining like a beacon of hope to my weary, wandering.
Every moment I think of you, with every step my mind plays tricks on me ;
Illusions of you before my eyes.
Your voice ringing in my ears with childhood memories.
Thinking that I finally found you, my heart fills with happiness.
Then I turn around and find you're not really there.
But when I find you in reality, Destiny intervenes and I am forced to pay
The ultimate sacrifice to save you.
Because of my love for you I fall into Darkness, leaving you behind to weep for me
And the harshness of our Fate.
I found it's true, that in the end, love conquers all.
As the darkness engulfs my still, burning soul, I feel your love run through me,
Bringing me back to the Light and your voice calling out my name.

We are Reunited at long last.
But before too long my path leads away from yours, pulling our hands apart again,
While the walls of many worlds spring up to break our silently staring eyes.
Know that our hearts are one and although many leagues lay between us,
We shall never be truly P-A-R-T-E-D.
At this wicked crossroad of Fate and pairings, I make you this vow :
"I'll come back to you, I promise", then we'll make our way back Home together
To be safe again in the loving arms of friends & family.
Then you smile as Destiny steals me from you anew, and tell me simply, :
"I know you will!", and I'll be right there by your side,
Leading you back to me.
Then with our Promises fulfilled,
We can take the Long Road Home Together ...
