-------What You Give-------
Let me rest, Sweet Love,
for a moment here in your eyes;
in this place of truth
where letting go is the easiest thing in the world for me to do.
I know we've just met, but I also know I have been here before.
When I was a child and sitting in windowsills
with doves
above the streets of New York City,
and speaking with each other through smiles, silence and singing,
in the only language I knew then and that we shared.
And again in the garden
where I have felt no worry against my pride as a grown man
to wander the days barefoot and dirty
doing what I need to do,
what I want to do.
The path in your eyes has taken me far away
but your kiss brings me back;
back to this world
where as much as we need to let go, and step back, and walk away sometimes
it is also where we need to be to do our work.
As we are the ones who can share with all things
what the love inside can do.
