The Black Dove
Wings spread cast for flight
I fly forever, never alight
And my feathers, dark as night
Carry me through the dwindling light
Sit atop the tallest hill
Sit in your room by the window sill
Wherever you wait, wait until
The dove appears, and trust he will
I search ahead, the past behind
I will not land until I find
Trusting arms, warm and kind
The love for whom I wish to unbind
That is what I found in you
You healed my darkened wings anew
My love for you, as bigger it grew
I realized soon that love was true
Dedicated to no one... yet.
