Love Between Cloud and Clay
By: DSWang
A whisper floats where the shadows play
The sky leans low
The earth won't stay
Your hands
Soft as twilight's breath
Hold me
Though we’re worlds apart
Love between cloud and clay
We rise
We fall
We fade away
A dream that lingers
Won't obey
Love between cloud and clay
I’m tethered here where the roots entwine
You’re chasing stars
Their silver shine
Yet in your eyes
A storm resides
We collide like tides and time
Can the sky kiss the ground
Without breaking the sound
Love between cloud and clay
We rise
We fall
We fade away
A dream that lingers
Won’t obey
Love between cloud and clay
Harp strings hum of what could be
A melody lost between you and me
The heavens cry
The soil sings
Boundless hope
Fragile wings
