The Wind

She was the wind That took my feet From beneath me And had me falling Like a leaf In the cold days Of autumn She was the wind That swept All the sorrowful thoughts That had gathered And hidden long in my mind Far, far away To a place That nobody knows She was the wind That danced around my heart Making it beat With a quickness I had long forgotten Raising me up To meet her motions With those of my own And yes She was the wind That cooled the heat Of my tired and wet body After the deed was done Allowing me to redeem myself So that in time I might Feel the wind again
