Sounds Of The Heart...

 Where are you right now? I say
     On the road or staring out the window into a new day?
        Is that a cup of coffee in your hand I see?
            Do you like it black and sugar free?
 It’s the small things in life that add up
    They always seem to fall into my empty cup...
        There is such a hunger & thirst inside these days
           My eyes look for yours & remember your ways
Saw you in the lines the ocean made as she tides
    Saw you in the sands upon the foam that rides
      Feel you in the summer winds on a starful night
        Sense your closeness, and the feelings are just right
I have been here many times before
    Suppose I visit this place looking for more
       Did I ever tell you I have a tear in my heart?
          It's been there ever since we drifted apart
Lay me down gently in crimson and clover
    Speak your heartful words over and over
         Quietness, now you are a friend of mine
              So where is your fire? Need your warmth & shine
You left me as fragile as a winter rose
    Standing cold in this fountain that forever flows
       You're the only one that makes me beautiful inside
         So naturally into your arms I want to hide
In this stillness, come with your eyes & help me see
     You were there when my innocence sailed out to sea
         I remember we made a covenant ... you and me
            But somehow I tumbled down like a falling tree
Now you are the silence between each word
      And in this silence I recall everything I heard
         So now I get higher to lose all the lows
           If you try, you can feel me in the wind that blows
So unbreak my heart as I start to fall
     Just glad that you are even here at all
         Want to hold you for the man you are longing to be
            Behold the woman that you somehow made me
I need the mercy of the clouds and the rain
     For without your embrace, I’ll never be the same
       I hear the heart say."Just let your feelings go"
         Gently falling 'cuz the heart says so
So drink your coffee and stare out into space
   And in your mind your hands will trace
       The sounds of the heart make this moment unwind
           True love never dies. It rests forever within this vine
