respite

just for tonight

let me sing our song

as I hold his hand

let my heart shout

of all the love for you (some you never heard)

of how I changed

the color of my wind

from nothingness to dreams

because that's what you wanted

let me tell

of how I stopped the waves

from rolling a placid ocean

where you take your morning breath

and wash the tears

you cried on a night

that the moon forgot to shine

let me make believe

it is your hand im holding

and your heartbeat i hear

that says im loved

and longed for and wont

ever be let go of

that i matter

that..I

let me just for tonight

because tomorrow i will wake up

and find

but a shadow of my past

when you shared

that dream we both knew

will fade with sunrise

because tomorrow i will

have to tell him again

it's you i love...

then he and i will both know

we lost, both

trekking a path, an end

we'll never find
