Stand Upon The Wings

stand upon the wings,
the past is now distant,
today rushes over me
and bathes me in this moment

lay your hearbeat against
mine, feel my breath surge
next to yours

the room once dark is now light
with the candle of your softness,
the sounds once hollow echo
with the laughter you bring to my soul

and the wind, which was gone
far too long, now fills
the sails of my life

i steer toward a distant star

and i name that pulsating light

you
