I thought and thought,
He stayed and stayed,
I asked and asked,
He loved and loved me anyway,
I knew and knew and understood little by little,
What was meant to stay,
Words of another, would mean not much today.
I ask I ask and little do I wonder at his prowess to love me anyway,
He stays and stays and little does he ponder about my weirding ways,
Crazy and Vocal his praise, I raise,
Matches mine in its crazy way,
His answers to my myriad questions and days,
I understand now that wave in him of which I came to be this way.
I understand how we knew each other even before we came to be this way.
My voice and his find words from the floating winds together and we sway,
We laff and cackle so wildly, it would be a-lonely were it not for said company forever on display,
On each other so brightly does the light of love lie, I continue to ask of him to stay and stay,
He loves and loves and I loves and loves,
And nothing has been this gay.
My love for him grows and grows and little else seems to stand in the way.
For my time was torn and tired of people and their plundering forays.
But now my blundering heart has found itself in a way to love and leaves arms to lay.
Found in itself its finality of lessons to learn and a game to play.
Found for itself the mate it journeyed long and foreign lands with,
Found in itself all of experience it yearned to gain,
one wonders how one questioned it ever or at all,
when it was wont with or without will to stay and stay.

Eyes cast a-sidelong, many lost in the sunlight of the day o day,
yet none cast their shadow so direct as the third one on my head,
it preyed it prayed,
I wonder where in this world of glimmer and gloss, my place, it lay it lay.
a million hearts wrenched open like a million clams at the bay o bay,
hands forced open a thousand-and-one that folded to pray o pray,
such misery and mice and everything nice shall mix and play, thus play?
and yet the world so rotundly on its shaft shall coil, twirl and sashay?
Thunderous came the rejoinder and it was not “no-nay no-nay”,
The world shall be the orb and deigned forever to stay o stay
The laws of life let us go by, but the others shall live the day o day,
Thus it spake and speak it did all in its way o way,
And the trees so sprightly swished and swayed, so-shay so-shay
and whimsy wind blowed its head away, hoo-hay hoo-hay,
I walked adrear, my skull on my chest,
a-sigh a-sigh,
stepping mildly into other air,
sailing away away.
