Tomorrow's winds will arise
Perhaps half a world's length
Away from me standing still
Circling across blue black seas
Presence shown in frothy waves

Falling on near sandy rock shores
Then once ashore blowing hard
Through my body's soul to fill
Bringing thoughts and whispers
Of memories never lost to time

Filling the moment's deep breath
With aromas from exotic realms
Actually bringing your breath
Left behind while still together
Breathing the same space alive

In past times spent with you
In our world of far off travels
Having gone together to
South, East, West, and North
And most points in between

Knowing after you are gone
No matter from whichever
Direction the winds to blow
I'll still breathe your life's breath
In the blowing warm winds

Or you can do the same as I
If I am first to early leave
Thus, though no longer able
To lay face to face in dreams
You will still take my breath away
