i long to be held by you...my skin calls your hands. i throw my voice into the cold air and wait for it to land on the island of your mind. i await the response like a bird the coming of spring. riding the wave of emotion that is summoned from you, i play in the clouds and the light gives me comfort. the blue sea above us is my happiness. the tears are only a gentle reminder of whence we came. i know you can save me from myself...i know your life is something more than i can ever have...but i am only waiting for you to call me up to you...i'm watching you...the days will never fall into themselves fast enough or slow enough. they'll always be just wrong...they can never be the way i want them to be... with you. but i find you are the cleanliness that my heart wishes to be secluded with. i can only guess at how to dream without you...you're so deep in me i wouldn't know where to start. perhaps i should say that i don't want to. i can't imagine a day without the sun in the sky...or a night without darkness...or an ocean without water...or a day without you in it...my little happy star...i will search you out when time has crumbled with age...i will oppress the destroyers and pursue the shadows if that's what i must do to have another day with you. i'll fire up the rivers of life and drift inside the night on an endless descent...until i have you in my sight once more...i'll fight down the weakness of death and fly higher than eternity, if only to be there with you. i'll burn away the images of false happiness and give you the ashes so that we can blow them into yesterday...then we can mold a new world with the remains.
