Life is a Dusty Desert...: I'll Walk With You

I'll Walk With You

I'll walk with You through the park
I'll walk with You on the trail
I'll walk with You in a zig zag
I'll walk with You anywhere
You're such a special person
That any walk on the beach
Or skip through the rain would be an adventure
Or it could be our time to talk
Or I could just walk next to You
And You next to me
Not a word said but
Having the brightest face
Due to Your presence in my life
Life is a trail that is never straight (and mostly uphill)
But with You I would walk uphill all day
I'd walk in circles in the burning sun
I would walk on broken feet
To the end of the earth
If it meant that I could share
Every one of these moments
With You

I absolutely LOVE this one! It's so simple and yet it could have so many different meanings.

My Dusty Desert

Every dune seems to climb higher and higher. The sun gets brighter and brighter. The sand gets hotter and hotter. I stumble down the pillar of sand to find that I would just fall to the ground anyway. As time passes and my nap ends I hear the song. I hear the beautiful sound that breaks my heart and expands my soul and causes my mouth to fall open. It's no where near me but I can hear it. That's what matters. I climb to my feet. First a crawl then a walk then a run. By the end I am frolicking up and down the wave sand mountains towards the beautiful music only to find nothing. The fleeting song tries to leave my mind but jam my finger in my ear to keep it in. Sure I found my way to an oasis. To shelter and eventually out of the desert, but that song, that wonderful song is still in that desert asking for an ear to hear it cry out in sweet melodic joy.
