time is like a leaf in the wind

months had gone by since I last saw you
and it was as if time had blown by
 
you looked at me the same
with your deep blue eyes
 
and I knew right when I saw you  
my love never disintegrated
 
we laughed as though our lives depended on it
because they did
 
our relationship was being held by a string
being pulled and tugged in different directions
 
but now everything is clear
we are meant to be
 
I know this from the way you cared about me  
and how proud you were of me
 
you asked about my dreams  
and listened with purpose
 
you hugged me with all your might
and pulled me closer than ever
 
you talked about your future
and included me in it
 
you shared your favorite songs
and sang with dignity  
 
you made me fall even more in love
only after five short hours
 
who knows when I will see you again  
but for one night you made me the happiest I've ever been
