To Zephyr
In the darkness I see a light
I try to believe that it’s true
My emotions wake me up at night
Wishing I was next to you
You took me up to galaxies
Where stars and comets collide
Now the distance between our dreams
Is growing smaller inside
You’re at a place I can’t explain
A place undeniably surreal
My eyes on horizons created by pain
Of fantasies that only I can reveal
I wanted to show you what I could do
To make all your dreams come true
It was with hope and feelings I promised to
Becoming closer to you
I can still feel your hands
Warmly caressing mine
I can still envision your grins
Faint, but yet so sublime
You came and left
Like your name implies
A soft wind from the West
Bringing love to our lives
The emptiness created inside
Is hard for me to explain
My heart says to run and hide
But that would be in vain
I need to set you free
It is hard with these feelings I knew
I am selfish to want to see
Again the beauty in you
Days and nights come and go
Irrelevant of my pain
Which only I can forego
Yearning that someday we will meet again
