Zodiac..AQUARIUS

Aquarius you haunt me
Like no ghost could ever do.
I see your face and all it's smiles
In every place I go.
Everywhere I hear your voice
So mellow ,so fine.
Fire has not the warmth
That I have here for you;
Nor death the pain.
Like a moth ,entranced by the light,
I long to reach up to you.
But silence sits upon my lips,
Like dust upon a shelf.
Cobwebs strangle al my words
And leave me quibbling like a fool.
And like a moth
When darkness filters out the light,
I retreat into the shadows of the night.
Aquarius you haunt me
With the distance that you keep.....
But there is no distance,
When I lay me down to sleep.
