Like The Wind

Like the Wind

Like a rainbow appearing after a storm, like the happiness after the strife
The existence of love is never unseen, and a lover is dreamt into life
It is love that I speak of so tenderly now
And it has found its way into my heart.

Like the wind that knocks into the trees and carries the leaves astray,
The spirit of love can shake the soul in such a similar way
The powerful branches are swayed and caressed
And the brittle remains of a broken heart are forever forgotten.

Similar to how magnets are made solely to collide
Two wandering souls are connected before they knowingly abide
A strong force resists the power to separate
And two people find themselves becoming one metaphysical being.

Just as the pure white snow blankets the earth with promising care
True love will always protect the heart from damage, neglect or fear
The sparkling snow is soft to the touch
And the serene nature of love will never weigh heavily.

Similar to dormant waters rippled by the passing rain
The heart is renewed by a pattern of kindness and a passion forever untamed
The tide is calm with a new direction.
And two lives are enraptured by a destiny withheld.

Like the body embracing the rhythm of music, like the mind being fed with a beautiful poem
The soul is captured by the essence of giving and no longer shall it wander this earth alone.
It is love that I speak of so tenderly now
And it has found its way into your heart.
