He is waiting in the shadows
silently
his watchful ear
listens to her
every thought
she echoes fears
living in a world
so cruel to her
she sits alone
wondering if he hears
high above the tangled web
she is living
invisible closeness they feel
through the distance of time
he is still with her
clinging to her
like a warm blanket
she nestles in dreams
she has of him
