Lazily gazing
At fluffy white as it pours
Splashes of soul into the deep,
Bright blue.
But I don't want this sky;
I want to see
Beyond the sunset
And grasp the blazing starlight.

Daylight is my barrier,
That of which holds me in;
But the river flows unbridled
And silver with the moon.
That piercing sight,
That scathing silence;
I want to hear you,
I want to touch you.

I wish to encompass
Your fiery soul.
I want to gather your essence
In my arms.
Holding it close,
Even as the day wanes,
"I will not forget,"
Come chant it
And sing it.
