        By 
        Aaron Espy  
       Torn apart were we,  
        no time to say goodbye.  
        Tonight I bear my starlit gift  
        of peaceful sleep below,  
        shine through your bedroom window  
        on a pillow stained with tears.  
      Close your eyes and find me  
        in places where I used to be,  
        for this is where I ride  
        the early summer sunlight playing warm  
        upon your shoulders,  
        dance with December's snowflake,  
        soundless,  
        mingled with your hair,  
        skim the salty white-capped swell  
        on early April breezes,  
        rustle in the browns and golds  
        of crisp October air.  
      Let gently go of what I was  
        for I am so much more-  
        I am not with you as I was,  
        yet I am with you still.  
        And you will always find me  
        on springtime's April breezes,  
        where I ride the silver moonlight  
        soft into your dreams.
