ask me to stay

where I was born

where you made me
come
alive

where you
brought me
into life

into
light

to gaze in wonder
at the sun

but
I
would never fear
to be burned

by the heat of the day
or
to

sleep
eternally

in the cool of the night

I just want to stay awake
and see you make the light

You did not have you own
heart
And so you
took
A little piece from

All the people
that you
loved

So while they had
enough

To Survive

You would have a
Little

Bit to keep you warm

:)

...but...

as they went through life
just a little bit
broken

you found you were
torn
in every direction

For you could not
follow

Your heart.

Because it went to so many
different places at once

And you had no
home

But neither were you alone

For you were sown in
love

Wreathed in
flame

Touched by
fire

And all of your best parts remain :)

like a goodmorning kiss
you embrace the horizon
your golden fingers reach out
ready to dive-in

you wash the fields
in your golden essence
and all who awaken
embrace your presence

slowly you rise up
to fill these empty skies
and I lift my slumberer's head
to look you in the eyes

so many times before
have we begun this dance
each time, again I stay
so not to miss a chance

the melody of your rays
slowly claim their place
you are much to bright
for me to see your face

a bright and blinding beauty
I could never  dare to atain
it is enough to sense your presence
I beg that you remain

bound to the sky
by an immortal chain
my Light, I know your dance
will never be in vain

I could never wish to tame
the passion beneath your skin
for I would only be burned
if you ever let me in

to touch, would mean an end
so I would never dare
I resign to my humble hope
that you could even care

you leave me alone
with the promise of a dream
but I have been told
things are not as they seem

until the next moring
my soul and heart shall yearn
only one deity can rule the sky
each must take their turn

I shall retain my nights
for my nights are mine alone
yet as a gift, I give you my days
for my days are yours to own

if I asked you sweetly
would you dare to let me run
the skies you've always owned
the skies of the morning sun

I stand so breathlessly
at the sight of you
veiled in this moring
and shrouded in the dew

I want to walk beside you
tracing every single step
following each and everyone
until none of them are left

none could compare
to your sweet light
but still you hide it
in the coolness of the night

you blush bright at dawn
like a gentle  maiden's cheek
my friend, on your endless journey
I hope you find what you seek

you never look back
to the places you have been
you will always dance
to the heavens - and back again
