The fog is thick
The memories blurred
My heart remembers
How it stirred
My mind falters
Details forgotten
It is the heart that desires
To feel besotten
One more time
To reach out and hold
The lines long blurred
Yet the colors are bold
Like a raging fire
A tightening in the chest
Rising credcendo
Wild beating to a crest
Makes me wonder
Maybe I am mistaken
And completely wrong
In memories forsaken
How can absolute stillness
Stand right next to the storm
Feel completely free
Even when shackled and torn
Is it just my imagination
Or was there magic in the air
Did I make it all up
So beautiful and bare
And then just like that
As if by the shear will of my mind
You appear, looking out
As if trying to find
I stand frozen
As if bound by a million ties
I can’t help but stare
At the molten gold in your eyes
They speak volumes
In their quiet smile
I stand rooted
It has been a while
I stand shaken
Amazed how time can stand still
As if my thirst found its ocean
Wanting to get its fill
I back away slowly
Trying to disappear
Helpless and spellbound
Realizing my fear
I am so afraid
That if our eyes meet
Even for a moment,
Mine might speak
So I wish a wish
For your eyes stay in my sight
But let me stand
Outside the circle of your light
