I Feel You Drifting

You can go on that trip, my love
I am allowing you to.
The world is a vast and beautiful place
So much to explore
Without me
We did so much together
rode my wheels
shared our bodies
near the campfire
With soft and tender arms
Tamed broken pasts
Cried and yelled at the moon
and crushed nightmares
Drank together and helped each other
back to bed
Sweetheart, I love you
But I cannot bind you to me
I see the longing in your eyes
while you are watching these mountains
those sunsets.
I feel you drifting
Like a traveller in time
from my heart, from my love
from my arms
I will not keep you
Freedom is important
The wild roar of your heart
is not for me anymore
I am allowing you
He is lovely
So go, my love
Climb that mountain in the sunset
I will watch you with a smile
and eternal love
in my heart.
