like a wing
without an angel.
like a feather
without a bird.

we still try
to fly,
my soul mate
and i.

we still search
for what eludes us.
the heads to our tails.
the boat to our sails.

together & alone.
waitin' for life
to throw us a bone.

searchin' & seekin'.
believen & reachin'.
knowin' & not knowin'.
waitin' for the wind to stop blowin'.

lookin' for each other.
lookin' for love
that's like no other.
my soul mate & I.
