~
I'm coming to you,
Oh purlieu blue,
No more walls of Berlin
Shall stand between us,
Your name is a link to happiness,
Just the very thought of you
Reaches beyond the tide
And gives life to children,
Our children.
~

A pull
that holds me strong
to the here and now

A charge
that carries me across the wire
when I am down

The only precious current that flows in truth

Adrift,
the only spark of light
that grounds me

is you...

Drenched in the ink of a dripping black cloud

unleashed from above, always keeping her down

The umbrellas collapse, the wind blows over, but the sad little cloud continues to hover

Lost at sea
they parted ways

Faith
focused on new horizons

Folly
drowned in crashing waves

Lost is she
in the shade
beneath a tree

All chaos
left behind
she is free to
change
her mind

They cried as they fell from the piano
leaving notes that just hung in the air
and She kept on playing
slaying the keys
I know
because I was there.
