You Are the Instrument

You are the upstream light I long for High and bright, then gone from sight As your presence still remains On pages and pages of my days I love you like a letter I need you like a pill My heart sings when you arrive Like a soul dive underneath a night sky I fold over and beam You are tearing me at the seams In such a beautiful way You are the instrument I must learn how to play Interlace your mind with mine, The way you do, the way I dream I am screaming at life to give me more time To grant me the courage to help you see That I love the idea of you and me How it sounds between a rest and melody How I would dance if ever I were free To sustain this budding reverie
