The day I became wind

I took the wind in my hands
as he begged me in a whisper
"love me, love me
I've been everywhere
and I'm tired
tired of my freedom
tired of my loneliness
tired of belonging nowhere"

Silly breeze
don't you know
you belong to the world?
don't you know
that you belong to me somehow?

Your strenght was not able
to lift my wings
but it calmed my raging blood
and gave me new reasons
to move on.

I do love you, and this I say to you
you want to belong somewhere
and I don't
you want to stay somewhere
and I don't
so blow on me until my atoms flow
and take me away
you shall take my place
and I'll go somewhere else
far away
from this ghostly pain.
