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.
