When I close my eyes
I can see your smile
And your eyes looking down at me
That eternal look
That empties my mind from its ageless doubts
From its cries
From its fears
When I dream
I can witness your warmth
And feel your presence
Beside me
Within me
And all around me
Your spirit floats on by
I can smell your perfume
The one I bought for you
On your birthday
I can sense that everlasting love
Everywhere I look
In all the empty corners
And even in the hands of the needy
I can feel that perpetual ecstasy
That lifts me into a crimson sky
And wraps me with its garnet blanket
And hushes the screams in my mind
And soothes the pain within my flesh
I can perceive a timeless bliss
That ceaseless…
Eternal…
Undying bliss…
And I can drift
I can glide
In the oceans of your existence
And I can survive
All those nightmares
That haunt me when you’re gone
Just be here
By my side
And everything will be all right
Just be here
And hold my hand
And make us one
Just be here
And exterminate my fear
Just be here
Just be near
Borrowed Wings
