In a Day Gone

In a day gone
I am found wandering.
Darkest day to the darker night,
Silence calls, a sweet summons.

There is a gentleness
That is you
Just beyond my touch.

You are close
In a sigh
In a dream.
I am found wandering.

Time that you were mine, complete.
And when you are gone
All too soon.
There will be a place,
No one can travel.

I was here,
Only to be me,
To be you.

Where is it dreams go?
That we begin,
That we end?

  1. someday i will untie myself
    from this rock, love of you,
    and i will no longer be lashed

    i will rise through the water
    no longer dropping down
    seeing the sun translated through ripples

    as i am bourne skyward
    i will feel the nearing warmth
    gravity reversing its hold to propel me home

    and when i break the surface
    the question will be answered:
    can i breathe the air of the new day?

    or have i grown gills
    and now belong to the depths
    tied to this rock, love of you
