Sunrise

4/20/02

Restraint

Holding back
Never thinking this could be
Always prophesized, you
And always elusive

Hope skipped town long ago
Left me an only child once again
Yet no desire to find it
Until you

Two worlds smashing
In a tempest of light and wonder
The iron falls to the earth

Closer

Never could have known this
Never could have dreamed

The newborn day streams in
Draping you in soft light -
Still adrift in dreamland,
Your magic courses through me

I am entranced, I cannot turn away
I'd sell my soul
To stay this way forever
