I Surrender My Self -For M
I see that you are here
I wonder how it will be
sensing our connection is far reaching
I know that we have been in this show together before
our roll, our movements like the stars,
slow, deliberate, smiles reunited
does it show...
when I think about it
I understand it less and the shade is pulled down and sleep occurs
all those years
all those close calls, you approaching
so close to me in the pattern,
somehow we both know this
somehow I remember - little packets of light carrying the story to me
over the greatest distances it arrives stripped of its details,
a ghost mouthing the words as it fades into oblivion
I remember you clearly, so long ago
remember that song and the way you moved,
I see it when I look into your eyes,
where I was once forbidden
now I am drowning in them,
when we are together
I see down into the pit where the saint sleeps
you rest the eye,the time, and the memory
I see you
see the hills and the valleys roaming
and the great expanse expanding
in those golden rings, the sun burns
something compels me
something like this
pulling me into the show
into your eyes
I surrender my self
