Yearning

Silence This idleness is driving me insane My life is in the hands of the pilots As I wait in this plane I'm weighed down by a fog like haze As I drift through this cloud My thoughts are trapped in a maze And there's no way out Suddenly I feel a strange sensation I awake from the dreamlike state My body is impatient I can't stand to wait There's something grabbing at my heart Attracting me like a magnet I want to jump into the dark To satisfy the need for attachment My soul leaves my body I'm soaring through the sky The raindrops wave to me As I pass them by I'm drawn to the feeling Like a moth to a flame My thirst for oneness is unyielding As I take my aim I see the peaks of mountains And the raw power of rivers I visit city fountains But as I travel through the forest my soul quivers You're there among the trees The tugging on my being is stronger than ever I come to you like a cool breeze My soul meets your heart, we are finally together I realize what love is And I feel complete But than everything changes And I'm back in my seat
