Wild as the wind you came, answer to my spiritsong,

carrying me to heights I've

never known,

you..an enigma I could not stop unfolding

as we danced our way

through the confusion,

wonder,  beauty, and pain,

knowing what I know now

there's not a thing I

would change,

falling beautiful under perfect

skies you and I,

you held my heart as I

held your hand,

we held the universe

it seemed...

But in the quickness of

that perfect dream

you made known your

need to fly.

The first sign of rain began

to fall from those once

perfect skies,

this could not stop you,

and I stood trembling

in the memory of us.

You were gone...it was

the end.

Tragedy led you back the

second time around,

I couldn't extend my love

enough to you,

to be your comfort,

your shelter from the rain,

and absorb within me all your pain...

Did you know you had me always?

Time passed and we were

lying again beneath those

perfect skies,

carefree and wild as the wind still, hanging on to

memories and past promises, clinging to the

night together, the dawn

almost in sight,

it wouldnt be long until,

once again, you needed

to fly..this time with me by

your side,

there was nothing I wanted

more.

Remembering how you vowed your love to me

in the sweetest way,

our romantic dinner,

the surprise ring for

dessert,

no song sung was ever as

beautiful as the sound of your heart and mine.

The months passed by and

I began to feel the drift,

side by side, yet so far

away,

so many warnings from

the past echoing up from

the deep,

once again your flight began,

those guardians ever by

my side, easing my soul,

allowing me to gracefully

set you free...

Then came the time when

your uncertainty of air

got the best of you,

what could i say?

Circumstances now pushing us further away,

capturing your gaze from

time to time, your eyes

revealing all you could not say,

and all I wouldn't say

washing away in the

bittersweet hour of goodbyes.

After I left those subtle

inklings of defeat slowly

gave way to deeper clarity

and awareness,

and somewhere deep down

within my very soul,

though then I had not

yet realized,  I knew...

I knew that it wasn't the end.

And here we are once

again,

a bit older,  a bit wiser,

ever closer to

understanding this soul

calling.
