The Swan

How many breaths will I take before we find each other.
Will I dance in silence under the stars.
How many breaths before you appear.
In the spotlight of cosmic rays.
You will see me waiting in the wings.
Illuminated and Golden.
Whole and complete.
How many sighs will I take before you hear me.
Moving gently under the misty dawn.
How many breaths before you appear.
In the gold dust and shimmering sky.
Will you see my patient heart.
Illuminated and Golden.
Whole and complete.
I waited and waited for you to come.
The graceful dance of the Swan appeared.
Tall and graceful.
Strong and serene.
Creature of light.
Wings of flight.
Illuminated and free.
They danced into the starry night.
Home calling.
Home coming.
How many breaths will I take before we find each other.
