With a sigh
I caught your eye
and realized again
what I am leaving
a forlorn thought and
fading dream
disharmony conceiving
what is true
I love you
One last night
I'm still awake
to feel you
softly breathing on my shoulder
the silence is my cradle now
though dark
and so much colder
as I dream
of laughing
with you, in white
dancing down a hill
sparkled by the sun
in a smile
so vivid, yet so still
knowing in your heart
I know you
Clouded eyes
rarely reach the height
from which to see
the light you brought me
rarely does
the darkened heart
envision what you taught me
here is mine
for free
that we may know love
for a while
as life that we have led
within a stolen breath
is fading
two ships are setting sail again
for sense
there's no evading
storms to come
It's so hard!
But you and me
we are the sea
upon which we sail
though ships may part
songs are free
to wing for these shores
together
that we may know love
