I find you in the horror
In the howling in my ears
I find you in the terror
In the thoughts of passing years
I find you in the movements
In the rustle of the trees
I find you in the stillness
In the absence of the breeze
And so we fall to our knees, love
And we'll stand, when we please, love.
I wonder if you would remember
My favourite time of day.
Was it the way the birds were singing
That made my insides sway?
I wonder if you would remember
The way my mind would wait
Until all the world were sleeping
To meet my soul too late.
I wonder if you would remember
Not to speak of light
And that your kindness is my cruelty
When only dark lies in my sight.
I wonder if you would remember
The stains earth gave my hands
Until love-loss turned them heavy
And we sunk them in the land.
I wonder if you would remember
The only thing I need.
All I've ever longed for
And that you planted the seed.
I wonder if you would remember
To love me whole and true
To give the flowers time to blossom,
And us to grow to one, from two.
Find me in the wonder
When the shapes become defined.
Find me in the warmth of your arms
In the shelter of your kind.
Find me in the space between
What's good and what is right.
Find me in your splinters of darkness,
In your pockets of light.
Love, find.
