I saw you again this winter.It's been four long years --
You warmed the skies,
melted the snow
and held me.
You made me realize so many things,
things I've been looking for,
things that have been missing . . .
I never could find the answers to anything
until I looked into your eyes.
They hold so much tenderness
-- the way you hold me --
they touch me w/ so much
I've never felt before I met you,
so much I haven't felt
in the past four years.
What I've been looking for
isn't missing in my marriage,
It's not something I lack in myself,
it's not something I've never known;
what I've been searching for
belongs to someone else,
something that was a part of my life
for so long
and so long ago.
It was sunshine & warmth,
it was gentle strength & protection,
it was beauty, it was elegance,
it was . . .
it was your wonderful, caressing
reassuring love.
I spread my wings one day,
showed my colours and you
thought I wanted to fly,
I thought I wanted to fly.
You loved me so
and you let me go
and like a fool
I flew.
When can I stop floating on the winds
and land again on the caring shoulder I left?
