He wants to save me
With his sweetness
Envelope me
In the warmth of his love
He sees a bird, rare
A broken wing
A hidden spirit
Lost
In the fear of flight
With his prayers
And the touch of his hands
An infusion of his spirit
The curve of his smile
The music in his voice
The feel of his heart
Beating next to mine
As he leads me in this dance
And I begin to depend on
The strength of his arms
He thinks this
Will cause
Within me
A revival of the soul
Such beauty could
Eventually
Or so I once believed
But I have felt
The sway of bliss
Lifted my face
To fully feel the heat
Bathed in the sun
Had it surge through my core
Given full testimony
Surrendered completely
How can I tell him
With his eyes so full of hope
His intentions so pure
Patience so present
How can I explain
I already know his touch
Feel it rattle my bones
Wash over the sensitive parts of my flesh
And dip me in want
I am familiar with the movements
I helped create the dance
I was once one
With the sky
I was a cloud
I sang the song
I was the smile
But I spread my wings too wide
And thought them much too strong
They could not break the fall
And he cannot
Melt this pain
So I must crawl away
Knowing what he has yet to learn
There are ghosts
That harden the heart
Embitter the spirit
Waste the sacrifice
Time is not always kind
To the patient
And in the end
It will be his soul
I’ll save
