Silent Breeze
There once was a man
who flew with the silent
breeze,
whose thoughts traveled with the raging seas.
With the breath of life,
he came to be.
He was the light for all to see;
my very own blessing in
disguise
like an angel that soared
throughout the night skies.
Except,
there was one thing about him
that I cannot describe.
But I just knew
every time I looked into his
eyes.
He only wished to do good
despite the fact he was hurting
inside.
His tears poured like rain.
I was his shoulder to cry on
when in came the pain.
Yet I never uncerstood
how he continued to do good
towards those who hurt him;
to those around him.
Despite his tears
that fell for years,
he continued to fly.
One day he came by
with mroe tears in his eyes.
He ran into my arms,
and began to say his
goodbyes.
I embraced him in return,
and asked him why.
He told me it was his time.
There was nothing I could say
to prevent him
from walking away.
I begged and pleaded.
I got down on my knees,
and told him he was all I
needed,
but it was no use.
He said he's been used,
and too far abused
by the people in this world.
I held him one last time,
wishing the moment was just a
dream.
When I let him go,
I noticed his eyes began to
beam.
It was like heaven's rays
were shining upon me.
I knew he was meant to leave,
but I didn't want to believe
that we could never be.
Now when I listen
to that silent breeze,
or whenever I look out
upon the raging seas,
I come to find that
you're always here with me.
You never left,
it's so clear to see.
