Voyage

 

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
