Lured and confused
Like a fish
But was it ever a clever lure
All was well
For that I fell
Then brought into laughter
All truly is well
Or so it seems
Please be true
For peace is bliss
T'was you I did miss
Still do
But hearing your sweet voice
Was like breeze on a summer day
Sweeter than honey
More gentle and soft than silk

Making me laugh too
A wonderful surprise
Oh, what ever to do
When I'm stuck here and you're over there?
This doesn't feel fair
But it's alright, I don't mind

Making me dance like a ribbon in the hand of a dancer
Twirling all about in the spring breeze
My heart is somehow at ease
Everything is alright
Or so I'm lead to believe
But all is well
There's not a thing I could tell
As I sit here and listen to the ocean through a shell
But that I'm hopeful as ever
Light as a feather

Indeed, I'm a little excited
But can you blame one such as myself?
It's so strange when you're so far away
But so close at the same time
As though I could reach out and caress your cheek
But all I'd be touching is the spring breeze
Hoping it would be carried to you
Telling you I'm still here
Hoping for something
Anything from you
That tells me
It's okay

The stars tell thousands of stories
But their silence is painful
Looking up and wishing
But no response from those glimmers of light
That could save me from internal fright
Then comes the soothing spring breeze
Putting my fast-paced heart at ease.

Hearing his voice again was wonderful - I just wish it were for longer.
Oh, dreamy wishes...
