Take Flight

You are here again tonight,
I see your shadow form
It's nearly light
I have waited oh so long
You are kind, warm and everything I want
Or am I again, very wrong?
I listen to the haunting call of the owls song
As I wait to see your shadow form
My body aching, my heart pounding, how I long
To feel you against me, atop of me, inside me...
In the shadows
I can barely see
But I can feel you and tell
By the way you look at me
The love I feel for you
I am not alone
Like the sound of tree frogs in the spring
Our hearts pounding in time
You feel it too
For once, it's not just a fling.
You come to me in the mid of night
And you are gone again
By morning light
You are not just a dream
No, I am wide awake
As you kiss me deep and our bodies take flight
It's another time, another place
But it's as real
And as plain as my face
Astral travel from our own time and space
Not sure how it happens or if I even care
I would do it all over
Even on a dare.
As my soul leaves my body
I know for sure
What awaits me, is so fine
And so pure!
Could I find love like this
In my wake?
If only I could find you
Just for my own sake.
Once I was told I need not die
To spend time with the spirit world
I just needed to fly!~
