I no longer have you
but I still have
the eagle above, long black wings, a snowy head
bear with midnight fur, a black so rich
moose by the forest
floating in the mist
kayak on the lake to watch the heron
walk on water
like a ballet dancer
that time we laughed for hours when the paddle missed the ball
cantaloupe and watermelon
chair that blew into the water
I gave you everything I have
and now I'm left with everything I have
elk sitting in the field, eating grass but oh so still
the song we sang about love and freedom
hoping we would heal
the sound of the bottle making bubbles in the pond
the world's greatest song
sunsets that painted mountains red
like volcanoes in the sky
and the stars that fell into our eyes
as we lay
under the night
I gave you everything I have
and now I'm left with everything I have
I don't have your love
but I still have mine
I still have mine
