lyrics

{ … I’ve walked a long way, leaving the superficiality of urban comfort and confirmation in practical means behind. I’ve stopped thinking so hard or worrying about what's ahead, content in knowing that a lodestar stays with me. After all, life’s greatest experiences are never marked by a trail, and ever unbound by time … }

--

The sunken sun dissipates
Over the horizon, while I
Upon a lonely hill on high
And in lucid darkness, might gaze
Above, where the earth meets the sky

I would linger upon your stars
And wish I could be your brightest
To dream with she whose fairness
Has kept me afloat - yours a charm
Unmatched - in a world of noise

That distant lodestar known by few
How I long to give thanks to you
Ravishing, yet often unseen
Though not unheard, void memory
To requite, unsung melody

In canon, once, though no reply
With verse of lyric argentine
Then still pine your dearest calling
To yours this aria I sing
My sweetest serendipity

For vagabond I would remain
If not for you and yours, maybe
Over the hills and far away
Sometime, my love, together we
Might meet again another day

And as night melts to earthly break
Of day, for like the passing breeze
Are clouds of thought foregone and late
Which sands of time, those stars of space
Become but a rapture, awake

I hope to stay, that I might see
A songbird sing soft of fancy
Over leaves of mint and parsley
To cherish these flowers bequeathed
And then ask, “Can you still hear me?”
