I'm Like A...

I’m like a cool glass of tea
On a summer night
Delicious and refilling

I’m like a breeze of wind against your cheek
Sculpting your bone structure
Massaging away all problems

I’m like the stars
Shaped into a drinking gourd
Guiding runaways through darkened nights to freedom

I’m like love
Never seen but lives within the depths of souls
That sweetly plays a tune toward its lover
