Stand Alone

You stood there in the distance. Shimmering...

The horizon above you and all the heaven's applause at your back,

I marveled at your seemingly ambient perfection.

Silent and cool

Naked you stood powerful and free -You were my idol

A savior without a name/A hero in the shade! ...But your light was dazzling

It was majestic in a simple sort of way and I love you but it's incomparable...

When I looked out at you it seemed as though the earth had spanned out before me... Both magnifying and complimenting your own beauty.

I wanted to thank you for your modesty

But even in the shadow of your brilliant light I felt nervous--

As though you had done this all for me...!

But if I recover my strength I want to tell you that you made this life worth something to me,

that I am royally humbled and that I have been blessed by your being...

And if we are ever to meet again know that you may call me friend
