yearning

I just listened to Ben Harpers Morning yearning off of both sides of the gun. It's a beatiful song and strangly aproprete for 5am. When I'm wanting to go home to my future wife and soon to be mother of my child.

the last two stansas of the song our just beautiful

Another day, another chance to get it right
must I still be learning
baby crying kept us up all night
with her morning yearning

Like a summer rose, I'm a victum of the fall
but am still returning
your love's the warmest place the
sun ever shines
my morning yearning



this put me in the mind to write with the realisation that
I'm waiting

I'm waiting
to learn well the time it turns
and Soon I'm going to be a father

I'm waiting to see
what it means to me when I hold it in my arms
I can't express how it feels in my chest

And I'm waiting for the words

There's tears behind my eye's but I don't want to cry
because Then I can't see the skys, or the ink on the page.
So I'm waiting to realise to release with a sigh
and let go

I'm waiting to be next to you
My future is closer my feelings are true.
there's a lump in my throat that won't die
So I'm waiting to realise

I'm waiting for her pain to go away
for the creation of a brand new day
I'm waiting with pride and with joy
for the new baby girl or boy

I'm waiting for the truth that is spring
and everything that it will bring
fitting in with the cyle of seasons
there is, there is a reason

I'm waiting in a curious mode
it's like standing on the edge of my toes
my heart feels like it's ready to burst
not like a ballon but like a flower at first
inside the seed then inside the closed bud or blossem
I can feel the changes inside and around me
and the feeling is awesome.

I'm waiting to relax with two heads on my chest
I think this is pure bliss with an x
Exclamation or exaltation
something that says it best

I'm waiting
To find out what comes next
For I dont know what to expect
So I guess I'll just wait with my smile intact
I'm waiting for Berkano
I'm waiting for birth
