Clear Skies

These moments in time
Go beyond what is mine
To a distance
Beyond my existence 

As we tangle and twist
Amplified resonance 
Encoded 
Is our legacy

Like the flames of a candle
So are the days
Like the sands through the hourglass
So are our lives

But those moments
Cherish every one
Hold them
Examine
Breathe in the smells
Take in the sights
Bask in the glow of the embers 
For as long as they may shine

You are mine
And I am yours
Through your eyes I see the world
Hold me
Like you hold a child
Tender and sweet
Melt away my insecurities 

In the hour of darkness
The light that once shone
Is yours alone
May it bring you comfort
Hold you like a child 
And be your shoulder to cry on
