Whisper in My Ear

 WHISPER IN MY EAR

Come, Muse, and whisper in my ear.

Whisper of things I fear to hear.

Whisper of things I don't know I know,

Whisper of the unknown future,

Whisper of the ancient past,

Whisper of secret things lost and found,

Whisper of things that last.

            **********

I await you faithfully.

I believe you will come.

You are like Tinker Bell,

If I believe you will live,

You will live.

If I believe you will come,

You will come.

            **********

It is that leap of faith

Into the dark unknown

That I take,

Falling, falling, falling,

With the faith

That you will be there,

That you will catch me as I fall,

That you will whisper in my ear.

And my faith makes it so.
