The Search
Flowing breathlessly on the sea
my heart tries to unite you and I,
until it falters and falls in a raging storm
and can not find its love no more.
Dancing gracefully in the field
your heart strives to bond us together,
yet it falters and falls in the tangling grass
and can not find its love no more.
Climbing swiftly up the mountain
my heart seeks to grasp your hand in mine,
then it falters and falls in the tumbling rocks
and can not find its love no more.
Floating silently through the clouds
your heart longs to join us in unison,
soon if falters and falls in the gusting wind
and can not find its love no more.
Yet hope always soars over the land
calming the seas and taming the grass,
crushing the rocks and hushing the wind
so that someday, our hearts shall be one.
