Gust of Wind

 

So close to love

I can feel her touch

A sudden gust of wind

A change of heart

That’s all it would take

And she would disappear

So fragile it all can be

Balancing so precariously as if on air

One minute all is beautiful the future is clear

A roll of the dice

A simple slight of hand

In the blink of an eye everything can change

A gust of wind is passing through

When the dust settles and all is quiet

Everything is different

Nothing stays the same

Keep your eyes open

Even when you can’t see a thing

When you’re so close to love

Not even a gust of wind

Should deter you from your path.

(Gust of wind a metaphor of sorts for changes; upheaval comes with a strong wind and everything is left in chaos. It’s the calm soul who steadies himself in the face of the storm and doesn’t allow a strong wind to deter them from the path.)
