My heart was mute
but it loved you
A world apart
but still I knew

If ever a dream
had come alive
it was your life
before my eyes

The flooding rain
The shaded smile
The silent ride
touched my wild

Loud diversions
and quiet aspersions
Wayward boots
with virtual spurs on

The nights awake
the stars unwound
The echoing soul
without a sound

Now my own art
is filled through
with words forever
though my heart is mute
