I have woken up,
once more.
Naked, with sunlight in my hair.
Half a lifetime has passed by,
And yet am I unable to describe you.
Moonlight through my window,
The oak on my backyard is still standing tall.
I am calm within.

The stars are shining bright tonight,
Your spirit is keeping me warm.
You look the same and yet you’ve changed,
And as the wind whisper our names,
I also feel the change in me.

Half a lifetime has passed by,
And yet am I unable to describe you.
What I know is what remains,
You still stand by my side,
Like the oak on my backyard.
