Wings

Give me wings to fly,

And I will meet you

In the middle of the sky.

Give me a heart that beats,

And it will beat for you

My blood flowing endlessly.

One day our paths will cross again

But for tonight

Rest your weary eyes,

I will come again at morning light

To see you smiling face one last time.

You may be deeply saddened by this,

But still you must live

You must live as I

Live on within you

Even though you may think at times

I have left you empty

I have actually left you whole

And made you stronger

Until that fateful day

When we can gaze upon each other again.

Until then, let the only tears shed

Be the ones that rain down from the heavens.

Just as the sun rises in the East,

I will be here waiting for you

Watching over you

Until we can be together in the

White light and shadows of eternity.

The Path

Let the scars fade

And the past wisp away into eternity,

I am now here by your side

As the Guardian

It is my duty to shed light

Into the darkness of the past,

And though you try to burden yourself

With events that are set in stone

I will walk upon the lakes

Of ice

In the frozen places of my heart,

And gaze up at the clouds

To see the golden rays of sun.

Upon every path

Each of us must forge our own

We must look ahead,

Without ever looking back

Even though we want to turn our gaze away

From the future or the hidden darkness of our past.

We shall walk ahead nevertheless

Until we find what we seek,

In the immortal pool of life

In which we must find within ourselves
