The Edge of Me

Blissful music plays around my head... Up on the hill I sit with all things said... In a rocking chair that leans on the edge of me... I cast my hands out to the clouds and fly free... Caressing these pillows in the sky till I make them rain... Then massaging them back to white like a sunny picture frame... Over your sky I travel with the promise to barely make a sound... Just a whisper in your ear that I will always be around...

You made a rain on her sky, drenching her overheated heart. "Just a whisper in your ears that I always be around.. " I love this, Michael. :)
