Advent

"In the dresser he kept all the letters

All the prizes of love gone wrong

As the rain spat down, the new love he found

Lay sleeping as he wrote this song

And the blue candle burned in the small room

As he stared at the form in his bed

Like a flower bloom, she lit up the room

And his life had begun again

Time is not such a boundary

Not a river that cannot be crossed

And her advent into his small kingdom has cancelled the loss

Mutual accolades and freedom

What great love can grow from respect

His hands on her sides, ethereal rides

It was like they had never met

In a small museum in a small town

He found the jewels he would use for her crown

The blond king and queen, she would wear his ring

And he would sing her songs

Time is not such a boundary

Not a river that cannot be crossed

And her advent into his small kingdom has cancelled the loss

But her beauty is more than her long hair

Or her face or her lips or her skin

The royal gatekeeper to her kingdom has let him in"
