High in a Windmill

Up on a windmill, high in the sky
Where souls float around us learning to fly.
We send off our shortened goodbyes
Sailing off into the sticky July’s
Dyed rays of another sunset
That shine down where we first met
When I used to keep my eyes looking down.
But you told me to “look up, lose the frown,”
And “to love forever, love is free.”*
So let’s turn forever, you and me*
Above the flailing, failing world
The place our story first unfurled.
