Six - The Resistance
I read your silence
As resistance--
And this somehow surprised me
Perhaps you sought out mystery
But there was no invitation nor call
I waited until the rising sun
To summon thee to me
But as my eyes opened, all I could see
Were clouds brewing in the distance.
I heard your silence
As resistance--
The refusal to persist
You tried your best to more than live
But your constraints limited your existence
There was something about your smile
That could make all weak at the knees
An insubordination, incomplete surrender
Left little choice for me.
I felt your silence
As resistance--
It echoed from the distance
Amidst the chains that tied you to me
I cut them to be free
But lost I was in the wilderness
Without your wise guidance
I came back for you, to walk with you
Only to be challenged by someone new.
I resisted your silence--
Profound defiance
Awaiting an alliance
The sun must set now
in the West
O'er the hills, trees, nests
Forever a-waiting, I for thee.
Until the day you return to me.
