repost and rewrite of You Are to Me

[Guest guest]

You are to me

You are a rushing river

I dare not jump in

For fear of being swept away

I stand at the edge, and watch

Wanting to be quenched in your coolness

Wanting to feel your peace

And be carried away

To rest along your banks.

 

You are a mountain

So high, difficult to climb

I fear falling, crashing below

But how I stand at your feet

And gaze at your beauty

At your wonder, your majesty

And I am in awe.

 

You are a great wind

Whispering in my ears

And touching me with your breath

I welcome you with my arms wide

And embrace your warmth

Swept away in the current of your soul.

 

YOu are the sky

Where I wish to fly

Amongst the clouds

And dwell in your greatness

I watch from below, glimpsing you

Reaching high to touch you

I am taken within your expanse.

 

You are a small bird

That rests on my shoulder

Forever within reach,

But so easy to lose

I watch you flutter around me

Your wings brushing my soul

I am forever changed.
