I can't stand the thought
Of someone taking you
Breaking you, or even making you
Label me selfish
But at least I know what I want
All my 1,000 words
Are short and sweet
But you can't even taste them
Let alone see
You're blind, deaf and dumb
To my 100 meter run
Now my legs are tired
So I'm going to sit this one out
The breeze feels good
But I question It's worth
Lost by the map
There's no treasure in this dirt
The offer still stands
I won't take it back
But the longer you sit
The more it has slack
One day it will reduce
To a coiled wire
Just a another song
Sung by my choir
Carried by the birds
That brought the first one
Buried under the words
Only ones that burnt them
Your wings can flap
The trees will sap
Your hands can clap
The thunder will crack
What else is new
The sky isn't blue
Only these thoughts of you
Can make it true
So what am I left to do
You're nothing but a lumber jack
Come to cut me down
But when the hungers back
You're nowhere to be found
So as I fall to the ground
I am the only one to say TIMBER
