Nothing stopped the chill at the end of my fingertips As they swayed and danced in the breeze My arm stuck out the window, numb to the cold air Caring at this point was out of the question Freedom, that in-explicit rush down in the pit of my stomach, The rapid beating of my heart Continued down the wide open freeway I counted the stars as they shown over the mountain tops Seeing them out like, no clouds covering their light No sun to block them out, just uncovered in the night We pulled over, holding one another Knowing this was just the start, the beginning to the rest As if already written above Like a roman candle dancing across the sky Taking the mind wherever it finds Splashing and sparking the fire Embers burn, that’s the moment I remember most He and I, nothing else except the breeze and the lights The soft gasp of air, the heat from the flame, the tenderness in the touch Closing my eyes, I dream of the night I relish in the feeling, the lost, nowhere to be found, pleasant feeling All over, I felt it, capturing my body in an embrace Squeezing ever so gently, tenderly, holding me secure Under the stars, experiencing the warmth Nothing ever compared to that, not the feeling of freedom Or the breeze against the fire, or the cold numbness to my fingers No words could depict the feeling I had when I was with him Out, in the middle of nowhere, no one to tell us this is wrong That what feels so wonderfully right, isn't So covered by night, by all the lights, we can reverie and dream We can say those words lost in our minds We can feel every emotion inside Thinking this is wrong not right Whispering secrets, laughing all night, holding each other tight That feeling of knowing, knowing this is alright, this is ours to protect To see through to the very end No one crossing over to step between It’s our freedom to be Living for that, that and only that, that one and only explainable feeling Believing in it, trusting it, allowing it to grow, and knowing it was ours And not for some show, just ours, under the shining spheres With the fire, blinding light, sparks floating up to the sky
