The Golden Door

I closed veiled eyes, 
hear the heartfelt cries,
Where fear into reside,
kept the tears inside.
Before the golden door,
and yet still losing you.

I know forever shores,
laid upon darkened floors.
with outstretched hands,
we met our final stand,
Before the golden door,
and yet still losing you.

I searched the foreign skies,
for winds withheld of sighs.
where blazing bird arose,
with ashened standard chose.
Before the golden door,
and yet still losing you.

I heard sands forgotten call,
across fields divided wall.
where painted visions crawl,
within echoed regals scrawl.
Before the golden door,
and yet still losing you.

I knelt a bent knee avow
In which laid upon her brow.
With olive branch wreathed,
And the sword hilt sheathed.
Before the golden door,
and yet still losing you.

I swam the sea of stars,
found open mortal scars.
Alone there stood my fate,
bestride the widened gate.
Before the golden door,
and yet still losing you
