I’ve Learned; Lights
When I looked at the moon
I felt you looking at it too
as if we both
were doing the same thing
at the same time,
thinking about each other,
Missing each other
because we loved each other.
Almost threw it away
until the day
I couldn’t live without you.
I had never been so happy
not in my entire life
and it was taken from me
in an instant
while I was in control of nothing
not a bit of it.
I felt my heart break
I felt the love disappear
to only resurface
when you decided to see clear.
We woke up laughing everyday
and throughout my life
I never had that before
So please don’t label me
with your past
I started brand new
why couldn’t you?
So I’ll just look at the moon
knowing you are too
maybe at the same time
you were never mine
as we both belonged to everyone
until we woke up
and realized
all that didn’t matter
not anymore.
Shining lights
floating through the air
only I could see them
what were they telling me?
I still don’t know
except I never loved anyone
the way I loved you
it’s like I always knew
this day would come.
I am like the lights
that float in the air
I am like the moon
who hangs there
I admire you
and all that you know
can’t you see
how much I loved you?
would do anything for you?
I think it was something
that needed to happen
we were lost in our love
we needed to break free
and share our love
with others.
And maybe those lights
jolted us awake
to only say
there is no other way
to reach true love
If we wanted what we created
we would have to be ripped apart
to heal in ourselves
what was keeping us apart.
To only find each other again
and realize what we have
and our purpose
is to give it away
as easily as we received it
is as easily as we can share it.
Although I worked hard
to find love
It all came so easy.
Like the lights
which dissipated in time
we too will disappear
but our love you can hear….
forever
for infinity
for all of time
only true love remains
after the lights are gone.
