Time Barriers

Time Barriers How can this be Where did we begin Not in any kiss Has passed this secret Onto the present Did we miss Separated in timelessness Undefined memories Shimmer in fields Where your bare feet Pressed to yellow flowers I heard you laughing Dancing will-o-the wisp Leaned in a doorway Between worlds And windows Of promises The edge of salvation Once rested in our arms We had broken A thousand nightmares Hand in hand Still we walked into The vanquished dark Silken threads of another life Slumbering their stitches Inside my soul And life has drawn upon Its golden needle To draw me ever closer To you Some purpose to purpose Meant to be How did we agree In the great divide To continue in these separate Lives Did I know you would haunt The remembrance of my blood Did you know that your pulse Would someday race Behind the recognition Of a strangers face And love once known Sings such a peculiar song Of unknown echoes Their familiarity Bringing tears to my eyes And pierces my heart With such eternal longings Far distant your day Sips on the hours of my night Alone in our rooms Behind ocean deep windows So insubstantial To reaching thoughts And the yearnings of love As to break the walls Time barriers All the space between Our separate lives And my voice calls to you Wind from these shores My eyes will search for you For ever more And I will swear To death and beyond To find you One day Some day Past time barriers Never again to leave you Alone
