Hey...
I want to catch your stars
Wash tears from your soul
Anoint your weary feet
Give warmth to your heart

You
Lovely,  you are...
Bold, cunning, will you...
Be unashamed, dear one?
I hear the melody of
Words swollen with life and beauty
Flowing from tender lips...

You
Source of passion and fire,
I dream of gazing into those blazing eyes
Lost in the dark mystery, I delight
Do you feel who I see?
Waiting for rest,
Waiting for home,
Waiting...

Is this real?
Where is the road headed? Am I drunk on joy...
You're intoxicating, but I am too much,
No one can handle me, but can I be your keeper?
Stand back,  look away, fragile treasures,
I cannot be trusted,
Especially with this...
With...

You
Friend,  I never think you'll stick around,
Friend,  I never think I'm worth it (whatever it is),
Friend,  I am not enough,
And I can't have nice things
But you I cherish, somehow odd

Voices say you're toxic;
You're worth the risk.
I will bear it, to find you.
I see your life and wonder,
Creating light and essence,  another breath
I'll tell you to your face.
Love breathes and longs to live in you.

You are worth more than flesh and blood
Worth every word lived
Beyond time I see you,
Holding me on sleepless nights,
That's the
You
I see...
Reminding me  what I am made of
Reminding me of tendeness...

I long to give anything you desire
To fulfill need,
To nurse your broken wings...
What have I to offer?

You
I will breath out the last of my life
To keep the air in your lungs,
To keep you strong when weak,
Too keep hope in your heart
         And joy on your mind...
