Desert dreams
Lose me here,
In your soft embrace.
Take me now
beneath desert sun.
see me and know
I am not real to you.
I am but a dream
you have to yet feel.
I am safe to you,
ever returning in the night.
I spin neath the cream skies
you watch smiling, content.
You grab my hand
with longing strength.
Your smile fades
as I dissipate.
The morning takes you.
Takes you to your battles.
And while you are away,
I wait, wait again til I can hold you.
until I can dance again for you,
with the grace only dreams can give.
As I close my eyes to sleep
we are there in sandy oasis.
Chasing the wind, and memories
from another time, another place.
When in dawns light we held
each other, in lost confusion.
when magic was but, the
river below whispering to us.
Whispering spells of eternity,
of our bond to each other.
I awake to my waiting,
to my sorrows.
I wait for my soldier to
return, I will wait forever.
I will wait for your eyes
to burn into my thoughts.
I will be here, when all others
have left in this life.
We will be together
as well in the next.
Forever, our watching
star carries our names.
