I met an old friend today.
      We embraced with a force that lives within.
The realest moment of my life is in his warmth;
sobbing like life was dead until this moment.

'How can you be so sure God exists?' I ask through the tears
"He's holding us together right now,
nothing on Earth can bind so tight and feel so free."

'I don't know how I can breath without your scent.
I don't think I can repay what was lent."

"You will be for me,
    you will be my tree."

'How is this possible? You planted my seed,
     Tended to my roots, so I may be freed.'

"They were tended with that which makes man great,
     they were tended not by me, but by fate."

'Don't you lie to me,
     Don't have me sip that mortal tea.'

"Where do you think we are?
     Lost.
          But never afar."

"Hold me as you would,
     But wake up,
          You should."
