Set Me Free

time always seems
to flutter on by  
carried on the wings  
of a dragonfly  
always dancing  
forever in motion  
cresting blue waves  
upon your ocean  
 
blink of an eye  
a shooting star  
twinkle and wonder  
where you are  
mighty north wind  
that’s ever blowing  
turn of the seasons  
constant growing  
 
Rise of the sun  
wane of the moon  
an endless dance  
to a celestial tune  
do echos of laughter  
quietly fade or  
can we recover  
the love we’ve made?  
 
turn away momentarily
and then it’s gone  
waterfall spills  
then trickles on  
can’t hold back  
for more we lust  
this empty cup  
river turned to dust  
 
the brook flows  
the water is gone  
easier to try and  
stifle a yawn  
they say if you love  
it then set it free  
but it’ll won’t come back  
can’t you see?
