Now and Then...
Now and then I look
to thoughts I hear whispering in the wind
I look for you
I long for you
and all I ask of you
is that now and then you think of me
you look for me, you come to me
you see me in a light you never knew
you see all my shadows and feel every texture
each breath
each heartbeat
beneath us
each turn of the earth
above us
each shift of the sun
between us
nothing
between us
Closing...
you can come to me
in cold, surrender
in warmth, remember
sometimes I marvel how little you know
what I know
how I show
how far I would go
you can hide with me
between me, golden
in me, silversoft soulshiver
caramel, vanilla and all the flavours of the rainbow sky
All I ask is that you think of me
now and then
catch and hold the thoughts I send
buzzing bees bright butterflies
hold these safe, baby buds, feed them on morning dew
on my ray of sunshine to the heart of you
love brims
love overflows
love spreads like wildfire and breathes in the new
you can be near
you can be distant
you can be broken, or perfect, or loud, or lost, or silent, or proud
you can be here
you can come to me
you can hide with me, now and then.
