You fly on wings of silver wind
Scarlet death in golden claw
A fighter like I've never seen
I know you, but I'm never sure.
I've met you only once before
In a past I've never known
You were there; a hazel shadow
Perched on a tree; a wooden throne.
I've seen you once; a thousand times
Yet not once have we ever met.
Each moment that I come one step
Closer; reality rushes back.
You exist, that much I know
In my dreams and fantasies
My friend, protector, can't be sure
To know just what you mean to me.
By my side you battle foes
Creatures that I've never seen
People that I've never met
They're all there, but there in dreams.
At the end of journey's dream
I watch you as you leave my side
I know I cannot make you stay
But feelings inside, I can hardly hide.
And as you wing homeward bound
Returning to your chosen tree
I softly whisper to the wind,
"Return again… return to me."
A/N: My sister's radio is irritating. I can hardly write without being interrupted by another song. Written to try my hand at Pokémon Poems. It's meant to be about the daydreams of someone who doesn't live in the Pokémon world… not sure what the Pokémon is, so make it up yourself.
