“Always Onward!”

Walk with me,     Through the night. Such blissful glimmering,     Promise above. My hand in yours,     Yours in mine.         Lovers fated,             With promised shine. That deepening dark,     Hiding us true. Naked we were- Invisible to all.     All that is known. My hand in yours,     Yours in mine.         Lovers fated,             With promised shine. Light pooled from above,     The creek reflecting sky. Bathe us in innocence. Arise as newborns. Cry out: “Always Onward!” My hand in yours,     Yours in mine.         Lovers fated,             With promised shine. “Always Onward!” indeed- Through thicket and tree. Speak not of the path,     Traveled before. Speak not of the path,     That lay ahead- Only travel. My hand in yours,     Yours in mine.         Lovers fated,             With promised shine. We must not stay- There is field to traverse,     Mountains to conquer. Be light on your feet,     Radiant star. My hand in yours,     Yours in mine.         Lovers fated,             With promised shine. Shadows sure to haunt-     Born from timber,     From moon. Fear not nature’s ruse- We are roaring animals!     “Always Onward!” My hand in yours,     Yours in mine.         Lovers fated,             With promised shine. Moss at foot and leafs of past,     Share with us- Your everything.     Energy of all things- Gone and to come. My hand in yours,     Yours in mine.          Lovers fated,              With promised shine. Cliff top high, oh release us.     Let us know the world,         As does the wind- Touching everything. My hand in yours,     Yours in mine.         Lovers fated,            With promised shine. Above it all we soar,     Eagles we are- Royalty of the sky. What Gaze from below- What gaze at majesty. Dawn would show our feathers,     But in the night- We are but gusting wings. My hand in yours,     Yours in mine.         Lovers fated,            With promised shine. Alas! The horizon! Water and sky meet,     But the journey yet to end. Procreated by thunderous roars- We animals HOWL!     “Always Onward!” “Always Onward!” “Always Onward!”
