Wild Horses

For My Wild Girl

I do not mourn for your death

You have not left this earth

You are still here for me to see

For me to love

For me to gently hug

But, you are not here

You are not the girl you once were

Dreams of galloping  through open fields 

Up top a horse with a mane you braided

They are frozen in time

Hope is still there

Even though hope has left your eyes

I know somewhere in there

The spark is still burning

We will find it and ignite it

I mourn who you once were

I mourn what you could be doing

I have not given up

Hope is my refuge 

You're my wild girl 

You belong in the fields 

Running with the horses

Howling at the moon

Hair a mess and clothes dirty

With a big smile

Chocolate and green eyes

Spakling in the moonlight

Let the mourning subside

Let this sun wrap it's arm around my shoulders

Let the cold hit my back

So I know I am awake

So this isn't a dream

That my wild girl will come home
