Run To You

Evenings slow ride has shed nighttime's face
For day has lost to moonlights race
The sun died in the arms of a whippoorwill
And, I'm down with the power of lonesomeness chill...

It's all in the way that night stares at me
Where the echo of fear gains all it's speed
And, I bow down with the breeze just to make it through
The only road I know running to you...

In an empty attempt to reach what's ever far
I wipe the tears and kneel to the brightest star
Hollow wishes to where their even going to
So, I close my eyes in a sigh and just picture you...

I have to run quickly from my past like voice
A road many times traveled but never by choice
But, allow me the way to bypass all this blue
Cause, My Dear Man, I only know how to run to you...

If by the grace of God you can hear this song
Let me find you somewhere other then gone
Reach your arms across the heavens tonight
And, place your hands in mine and hold on tight...

Cause, I'm in the middle of wanting to make this rain end
For, fear seems to win over and over again
And, I've really nowhere to go since nighttime's grown
And, not a single place tonight I can call home...

I will the take miles to anywhere
If in the distance ahead you'll meet me there
A little life falls in the path of these tears
I pray my run to you now be something you hear...

Sauni:)The Only Time I See The Sun Is When I'm Within That Vanilla Breeze.The Only Time I'm One With The Sun Is When He Shelters Me From The Rain. L.S

Nice work.  The need for comfort and compassion is something that we all experience and this piece touches on that nicely.

Such want is not gone unseen,
such need does not go unheard,
such love will never be untouched ....

Its the miles to anywhere that makes it stronger ...
beautiful work!
