remembering time without you
the days all seemed so hot so dry
knowing the things as they do
traveling as much as we can
without any real regard
for safety sought for the child
the tepid response is the truth
feral in feeling still not to wild
forever the sun will climb
then slide right to the night again
and here we are now alone-
the faith is where this all began
ice did finally melt
to lead us on to these summer days
let’s spend more time alone together
before the summer fades to fall
the noises of children at play
then run away with school bell calls
It’s the place I needed and you’re there.
without any real regard
there was never a true safe place.
I will not let you go.
You are truly my nature
Still now I can’t dream alone
after lessons learned with you.
