Songs We Sing

I wish you were here  
So we could talk  
Touch  
The sound of laughter  
When songs are feelings  
That we sing  
And our mysteries fall away  
In meanings  
 
I wish you'd stay awhile  
Forever  
Even if just tonight  
Everything seems so fluid  
I'm torn  
I'm not like this  
But when you're here  
I'm healed  
Adrift in far, fair fields  
Within your presence
 
I'd like to see a washed out sunrise  
Fog shrouded on the shore  
Chase the fading night  
The halo'd moon  
Waves echoing your nearness  
Old blanket  
And driftwood bonfire  
Crackle  
Amid the wash and roar  
Here
In the dune grass
On the sea shelled shore  
 
I feel adrift within the greys with you  
Not in doubt  
But not for sure  
And gulls are such incessant birds  
Like the beating of my heart  
Can you feel it  
Feelings verge uncharted shores  
Let me sound the depths
Love me  
If only a little  
For even the smallest flame  
In love
Desires only to consume
