Alone, just you and me.
Rustling creatures seem to have fallen asleep.
Summer leaves appear to have frozen still.
All I can feel are our hearts beating together,
All I can sense is our expectation.

I close my eyes and breathe.

We have taken this path before,
But that does not stop my adrenaline
It does not halt my racing heart
We have become seasoned together
We have grown to rely on each other

Still, I close my eyes and breathe.

With a slight release of my reigns we are off
Flying through a sea of green and brown
The pounding of your hooves floods my ears
The crisp air beats my face and waters my eyes
The sense of complete happiness fills my chest

I close my eyes and breathe

Too soon, the dream stops.
Do not fear this conclusion of the path
For when your feet cease to conquer the ground
I will be here to carry you down the road,
I will be there to take you home.
