Just Like the Wind
Before I ever saw those eyes
How deeply I loved you
Before you read my first thought
I found you
Before you ever dreamt of my lips
I kissed your smile
I meant nothing to you
and you were already my world
I lived in every breath you inhaled
till that same breath became
an exhile to a ghostly past
Tonight,I live for what was
Tomorrow I live to exist
for what remains
For what remains
from that yesterday
before I stopped calling your name
I stopped following footprints
Stopped searching your arms
Stopped seeking the moon
and believing in stars
And Oncemore...
In my soul's dusky night
I will remember you...
and who We used to be
Through silent distance
I 'd feel you within me
Ever so soft,just like the wind
Like zephyr breeze
which left my cheek
yet lingers sweetly
into my sleep.
