I Envy the Air

I envy the air because I know it will always be closer to you than I'll ever be. I envy the air because the sound waves from your guitar, it will carry. I envy the air because it rests on your lips where skin and wind marry. I envy the air for it dries your tears and with it your sorrows it will bury. I envy the air for you and it are one and you and I will never be "we".
