Dreams

Saw you again so beautiful,

These brown eyes slender frame,

This moment when you know peace

Wait and don’t run away.

Speak but do not shout just touch.

Reach beyond the borders of desolation

Reach out beyond your darkness and loss

Reach into the heart of me

My deep pools of sorrow my tired pain.

And we are not alone any more

Nor so bereft, nor so lost

For to each other we can be candles of hope,

Wells of relief and songs of love.

Don’t you see how we walk the same desert,

Stumble upon the same harsh mountain,

Fear the same shadows and darkness,

Phantoms of loss and desperation

Memories of love fading, time gone.

But with you there is joy to live

Wild ways to walk a mountain to climb

And this life to live not hidden

Not of fear but of love

And of joy.

A moment of spring even if autumn is coming

Even if we have seen the end and felt it beginning

Even if all is vain and nothing lasts

There is something beyond dreams

Like this love I would live with you.
