Two hundred and fifty days
Seems like forever, for us to be away
It really has been such a long time
Since I have felt your sweet embrace
Since I have gazed upon your smiling face
I wish and pray and pray and wish
When we lock eyes again, under the sky
For a soul rejuvenating kiss
I’m listening to the wind
I’m looking for the clues
Our hearts are securely attached
With an eternal elemental glue
We’ve been down in the valleys
We’ve climbed high upon the hills
We’ve died and have been reborn
With new identities and sparkling skills
Our paths are laid out before us
At times they are hard to read
With many unknown forces
Helping to let go while giving free
With a sea of patience
With a forest of trust
I stand here so determined
Honed and hardened steel
Shaped from ashes of stardust
