LOST…HOPEFULLY



I found you
Between scraps of the wind
I thought you were mine to keep
But that’s what you were
The child of a breeze
And it bore you away….
I guess you were never meant to stay

I keep wishing for
Another time
Another place
Another chance
To run my fingers across your face
I’m looking for you
Again
But you are out of reach
Your words wash over me
In waves
They come and go
And I….I’m left waiting, forlorn,
The yearning, sandy beach
And that’s how I’ll forever lay
Embracing the tireless notes
That drench my tired skin
All night and every day
Searching….
For your familiar voice within

Will it pause near my heart
To ignite a glorious spark
And heal me
With its tender siren song
Would you recognize me
And take me away
Hidden between your vertebrae
Back
To those intoxicated moments
Where I belong!
