My Person

The sky turns gray , clouds hang so low,
Cold winds seep through my aching
soul,
You vanished, like a fleeting glow,
And the winds erase each trace you
stole...

Like a bird you soared with the spring,
Leaving me autumn,  rain, and decay,
The forest dons its golden ring,
But without you,  my days turn gray..


I love in you a beauty rare,
I love the tenderness you show,
Your soul - so pure, beyond compare,
Your calmness sets my heart allow...

I adore your smile, bright as the sun,
Its rays illuminate my day,
I'll forgive the wrongs you've done,
For love will keep all harm at bay...

Each moment I'm grateful you're near,
For with you my heart beats strong,
You're life's gift , my treasure dear,
That shields me when the storms are long...

I cherish your tender gaze so sweet,
You are my peace, my reward , my grace.
Your voice makes my days complete :
I long to stay in your embrace...

Like a bird, you soared with the spring,
Carried away like a leaf in flight,
The sky grows dim...the rains now sing,
You were my sun , my guiding light...

Through fog and storms,  I'll race to you,
Hidden by night, unseen by men,
I'll wander the world,  and wander true,
As long as you are my person again.
