she is...

She’s like cold water on a sweltering hot day
And the color in a black and white movie scene
the sunshine after 3 full moons of gray
A breath of fresh cold air
In a hot polluted city
and the first sign of spring
After the long harsh winter freeze.
the warm rain on my roof
patting me to sleep
in summertime’s draught
She’s the stars in the sky
That heaven once made
the red leaves in the fall
as they peak and shine glorious one last time

Oh, I don’t think I could have asked for more than this
A treasure hidden in the depths of ocean’s deep
And I am choked with awe and speechless disbelief.
Cause I swear Id be nothing more than hopeless:
Staring out to sea, washed up, beaten, and nearly drowned by futile hopes
and prayers, coming from far-off, distant shores.
