Frozen In Time

and in the whirlwind
he stood his ground
while the wind
tore away at his world
it was not the first storm
that he had stood against
and it would not be the last
so i stood there
on the other side of the world
and i held out my hand
into the night....
our eyes met within the winds
familiar yet changed
from many years apart
when we faced different demons
and survived the fire
and now here i stand in my world
watching you in yours
as the walls crumble
and the ground shakes
and you stand before me
like a wounded soldier
weary from battle
frozen in time
still my hand is there
all you have to do is take it
and let me guide you
out of that darkness
just enough to see the light
so you can survive the storm
