Advent

In the dresser he kept all the letters
All the prizes of lovers gone wrong
As the rain spat down
The new love he found
Lay sleeping while 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 in 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 canceled the loss
Mutual accolades and freedom
What great love can grow from respect
His hand on her sides
Ethereal rides
It was like they had never left
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 canceled the loss
But her beauty is more than her long hair
Or her face or her lips or her skin
And the royal gatekeeper to her kingdom
Has let him in
