I Will Be There to See

I will be in the valley
where the sand meets the tree of fire
and walls that close in
do not exist.
My arms have become part of the stars,
when I walk they enfold night
with a web
encircling a kiss.

My heart contains a spirit of love
I obtained from the sea,
when my skies were filled
with all that I know.
I am here in the valley in between time
and the place where the tree of fire
still glows.

Come and take my hand
when your morning is cold,
until all that is left
is how you remember me.
Then, when you look into the glass
where your face was alone,
I will always be there
to see.

Sorry to read to deep but the repeated tree of fire made me think if the burning bush where love received the ultimate test of faith and the valley and the sand also spoke of biblical references the valley of death I will not fear and the footprints in the sand where when you think you walk alone it turns out you were being carried. Love the emotional tug of your words and the gentle sadness it evokes. Beautifully done, keep em' coming
