The Flight

I stand on the edge of the cliff

this is going to be a long trip

As i look around i only see white

In some days there wont be any light

I flap my wings and then hesitate

Its not that easy offlate

The journey is long and i have no strength

How far i have to go to cover the length

I spread my wings out and fly

i think to myself this is the last time i will try

The wind cuts through my wings like a blade

This is the place i was avoiding to evade

I look down at the hills yonder

Will I be back ever i wonder

The journey begins, a long one

I feel I have finally come undone.

Longing...

Longing...

As i stand alone and watch the sun go down

Its just another day, i think and frown

Just another day of loneliness and wait

making me wonder whats making him so late

The days go by, the nights are long

my leaves are gone and i am not that strong

The winters made me weak and frail

I still look out for that one persons trail

He left long ago, without even telling me

When i woke up the next day i saw only me

My reflection on the water was blur

As i could not see with all the tears

I cried his name out loud

I found myself alone in the crowd

One by one they all disappeared, the water is gone

i stand alone waiting for him to come home.
