Whatever the Time
Kiss me sweetly in the morning
let me call you
lovely names at noon
meet me
in the evening
make me
want the night to come soon
hold my hand
when things are bad
let me laugh
with you when things are good
let us be to each other
what those in love
really should
for life is too short
not to enjoy
and has too much pain
not to share
the cares and the burdens
that we often
seem destined to bear
let me call
you my dearest friend
and myself
be the same to you
for whatever the season
or the time of day
I will be in love with you
be it late in the evening or mid-day
or in the midst
of the dew of our morning.

For Himself, I wait
I am longing for
a place where I can rest
and lay my weary head
upon the chest
of the one who loves me
I need to feel his
sweet embrace
his tender touch
and soft caress
upon my face
This love who'll give to me
sweet tender loving care
Who with me
His life will share
Please ask him
to wait for me
so that together
we soon will be be
He helps me dry my tears
and lets me face my fears
As he walks with me
and holds my hand
His desire is to
share his life with me
as he helps me find
a peace of mind
within his loving arms
our bodies intwine
His precious love
would be mine
and in him I would find
laughter and charm
Please tell him that
for him I do wait
and though in God's time
I hope that God
Himself, won't hesitate
for true love
I'd prefer not to wait.
