Free

Yesterday
When our eyes met
My heart opened up
Silently loving
Breathing deeply
In your presence
















There in the night
You drop a little pebble
Into the still waters
Calmly whispering

Can you let me be free?

Little ripples travel across the waters
My heart embracing your whisper
Deep in the still waters

There in the dawn
You turn to my heart
Dropping stone after stone
Whispering

What do you expect?




















In the light of the day
The waves rise and break
Currents rage

The heart freezes
Grasping for air
Almost believing
That whisper

You feel the cold
The hardness in every move

Then as the sun sets
Deep down in my heart
The pebble moves
Cracking and gently
Melting the ice

Can you let me be free?














Tonight it rests
In my hearts calm embrace
A soft whisper touching you
My love knows no cages
Be free
