As If To Find You There

Your notes ignite my heart Like an archer with a dart I follow you down each and every hall Look beneath each drape and around each chilly wall I strangle in the night with the longing and the fright My fingers trace the air as if to find you there… My heart weeps n sweeps with the willow I long with breadth and curtain billow like the full white hearted sail at sea Do you not also.... long for me? Your song seems to say its so I must find you...this much I know My soul has truly taken flight in an arching flow of golden light stretching out to find your own pining for a home and throne… where we can always be as one and our song …be never done Your voice it fills the space of my being and this place Oh love …let not this song be stilled but stir on in me ...this breathless thrill You have become the obsession of my day and night the love I need ...a so perfect ...so right Keep not in shadow...please ..Oh my adored that our love can finally reach.. the highest chord and stretch out long in song across the sea to the place where such things ...can always be Oh love …let not this song be stilled but stir on forever ...in breathless thrill My heart pounds loud inside my chest and my head is bowed by love's bequest
