Breathless
Broken
Echoes of
Words once spoken
While so much
Is still unsaid
 
One soul
Dragged across a desert
Tracks long swept away
 
Water saved, evaporates
Nothing is remembered
Nothing is recalled
Forty years of endless pain
Wandering in aim
Drifting through a barren plain
 
So many scattered seeds
The parched land raised only weeds
On the rockiest of ground
I sowed it all.
 
 
And then
 
She came
 
And she came
 
Like rain.
 
 
For one night
Just one night
Free to be myself
As you,
You always were
 
Two destinies
One night collide
 
Life once lost in dreams
Erupts upon the scene
Sparks of fire
Ignite the wire
Illuminate the screen.
 
And her rain still washes over me
This sweet, sweet whispering, enveloping
Monsoon of love
 
So much still longs to be said
With echoes
Of words once spoken
Still breathless
But not
Broken
