To Where I Weep

The rays of sunlight glitter as they play upon your face
The touch of heaven lingers in the shape of God’s embrace
And a voice from down the ages so sweet and beautiful
Is reaching out to answer the calling of our soul
The sculptor’s art so proudly, it does form a masterpiece
You’re shaped unto perfection, from what eyes of man can see
But with time a magic moment reveals from where it’s dark
No human hand may ever portray what’s in your heart
The final light is streaming deep down to where I weep
Your face begins to ashen — your mystery to keep
But as your eyes grow darker to mankind you must seem
A stroke of light at nightfall, the temple of our dreams
I so much long to travel where only you can go
No matter where you’d lead me, beyond or far below
No man nor god would find us if truth was ours alone
A place to journey further, a place to journey home
