Dominion of the Wind

The dominion of the wind A wildly magical place Eyes closed in pleasure As she blows gently on your face She'll whisper in your ear A reminder that she's there She moves the earth around you Cannot help but stop and stare Lying on a blanket watching her at work Her quiet song making leafy treetops prance Calming, resting, and watching The grassy field rhythmically dance She was there for a while Then she'd be on her way She'd turn and look softly When I whispered don't go stay For years I was the one She chose to keep me by her side She brought me with her On this love filled ride But the wind is the wind She does not long linger or wait Tear filled eyes informed me I now was fully aware of my fate I tried my best to keep her I loved her with all my might She knows what she lost None of this is right The wind chose to keep all others safe I would be the only one she'd inflict pain upon She knew full well her actions would destroy me I'd be incomplete when she was gone I was a fool to believe I could keep the wind She never wanted anymore from me than the piece she took I should have know better I should have seen through the heartfelt look I was the only one who with a word could end her reign My pain was acceptable in her opinion Forever adrift in a sea of pain In the wind's dominion
