Love Like A Cloud



Love like a cloud
floating away

there's freedom in the night
and freedom through the day

love like a light
cursory or bright

framed through the day,
static as a night

there's freedom in your ways
and there's freedom to play

there's beauty in your light
and freedom in the night

love like a cloud,
static or bright
floating away

floating away
 like an evanescent day

here and then gone
love like a cloud
floating away.
