Eyes Like Emerald City+

They say home is where the heart is,
my home is in your embrace;
in the shining green eyes
that light up brighter than Emerald City.
I'll wait forever for you to come home
to me.
Rod Serling came
to me last night in a dream and said
you were the one for me.
He said somewhere down low,
where we've buried our hurt,
and with what little love we had left;
we found each other.
I was wandering around in the darkness;
a candle with no flame,
and you had a can of kerosene
and a pack of cigarettes.
We used our hearts as flints
and made a spark that never seemed to fade.
The black turned to gold in our light
and the coal in our hearts turned to rubies
that tasted like tropical punch.
It took me 23 years to find you,
but it's just a drop in the bucket
if it means forever.
So take this with you wherever you go
and know that I stay up nights
looking at the stars;
and spelling your name.
