Let It Flow

Sometimes
My thoughts just flow
Following twin streams
Thinking about you
What it would be like to be with you
And wondering
Could I love you with my heart wide open

Sometimes
I think I'll never grow up
Other times
That I'll never grow old
But time keeps passing by for all I try to build
That's just the way of the world
But I keep circling back to
Are you the one
Could you be my truth
The keeper of my soul
What do you want "us" to be
What is love but the reason to breath

Could I be as fearless with you
About my faults as my passions
Dreams are an easy share
Wisps of real and half make believe
But could I drop everything for you
Stop on a dime
Turn my world upside down
If we decided our everything
Was bigger than you or me

There are moments that seem to define everything
Moments there are no words for
Things simply fall into place
And feel like a favorite old shirt
Comfortable
That meant to be
Real

Following the thoughts that you gift as dreams
When you speak to me
With hands so much smaller and softer than mine
Yet they hold me as no others
My heart stirs spring and wild flowers
When you smile
And great things grow from small beginnings

What memories do you want to lie dreaming
In our winter years when we're shut in
And the world's grown closed
Save our little home
What fireworks of life and flames of living
Do you want still glowing behind soft eyes
No regrets

Would you make me a better man
Than the man I am

I dream of you
