Weathered

I watch the skies change from gray to blue and

I'm thinking about you and

How the world might twist these words that

You already knew

I needn't speak them, need not reach out

You are already in my thoughts and I

Will not chase you out

We might have silence here, but never doubt

We might have moments where we come crashing to the ground

But you've always stood by me, you've always found

The best in the worst of me, the fire behind the clouds

That reaches down to warm the heart

To carry beyond the stars

All that we never were, and now are

I watch the skies change from blue to gray and

I'm thinking about Ariadne and

How she might see the same.
