On a birds wing

It’s two a.m. and my wine soaked heart wants more,

More of you, more time, more anything

The moon sinks beneath the sky, trading places with the sun

I tuck myself into bed, wishing it were you next to me,

I slip into unawareness, dreaming of a tale…

Last night, I dreamt we had a great fight,

I cried, me tear drops falling like rain on my pillow,

Drying my blue eyes, dreaming I left you,

When I woke all that I dreamt had been untrue

Leaving me broken and wanting your safe arms

The sun streamed in golden rays on my face in the morning light,

Peaking it’s glittered eyes through my window and danced on my floor,

Knowing when I wake you are not near.

Wanting to be near you, my head on your heart,

Falling in and out of dreams, safe from outside in a haven of sheets,

With your legs tangled around me and my hand on your chest,

Like a missing puzzle piece, you fit around me,

Nothing I wanted, nothing I asked for, but everything I needed,

You make me feel alive.

My life takes me running free and easy down the road,

With no strings attached to any person, any place

Leaving as quickly as I came

Now my heart wants to run with you, like a sweet melody

Simple and smooth, flowing like life of a river

Put your hand and mine and run with me

Fly with me like the wings on a bird

Giving you a little piece of me,

I want to stand still with you, if only for a minute

To look up and absorb the beauty of life

To stop everything in the outside world and just be yours

Completely yours, until we both decide we must go on

My life and the world beckon me to follow

Whispers my name into the sweet air, my heart in two

In love with the world and feeling of passion for you

I am like your wild horse, untamable and never fully yours

Always with one foot on the ground,

Until it’s time we both break free, and run our separate ways

Like gravity we are pulled back, when we cross the same path again

Don’t ever stop following your dreams and living your adventure,

I promise to do the same

Let go of my hand, for just awhile and fly free
