Alone & Together

I have yet to learn
how to shine like the stars
on a warm summer night
or how to find fast freedom
like the speeding cars
that almost take flight

I'm not sure
how to bend with the wind
like the tall trees
or how to defy gravity
like the ivy that twines
with persistence and ease.

I don't know
how to tell if you're from above
like a blessing that I call my own
or how to express this feeling
as though I'm in love;
you feel like home.

Will you stand with me?
Feel the starlight on your face
Watch the cars run the race
Let the wind whisper in your mind
Wait for the ivy to unwind
Hear me speak words forever true
hold me tight, know that I love you.
