You were not mine
Yet I dreamed your dreams
I was walking on a mountain top
And you were a passing cloud
So I raised my arms around me
To feel your light embrace
You whispered something to my soul
A secret it so fiercely guards
There are a thousand veils between us now
We once used to be friends
I wander alone
In the valley of my dreams
And it's there, I met her
The one who says, she is me
Intrigued as I was
We walked a mile together
In a long comfortable silence
No words were worthy of trust
No destination
No need for rest
And as our feet became weary
The veils stared to drop
I could see it now - what I always knew
I could feel her pain
I cried in her sorrow
I soared with her joy
I dreamed her dream
This was her story
I was walking her journey
To her destination
Which was us
And here we are now
Staring at each other
In the absolute beauty
Of our naked selves
There is nothing to hide
Nothing to be ashamed of
We've become
What we were always meant to be.
