I'm squeaky clean
I'm tryin'
I'm losing my mind
Feels like im dyin?
I'm looking for
the answer.
I'm moving through
Just like a dancer
I'm squeaky clean
I'm all good now
I'm doing all
I ever could anyhow
And I don't know
I never did
Why they didn't catch
When I was a kid.
Now I'm drifting
Like a dust bunny
Call me funny
Please call funny
I'm just a kite
I'm just a plane
I'm just a spider in a web once again
Catching the drift
Coasting the line
I'm just a dust bunny-
And that's not a crime.
Talking the wall
About why I had to fall
I was just minding my business afterall.
I was a good girl
Didn't see it in the lights-
so i stood in the street trying to catch the heights.
Like a star I am flying,
can I make this wind mine.
I'm just a dust bunny
most of the time.
I'm just a dust bunny
And that's not a crime. (Did you know, did you know? Did you know, did you know-o? Did you know, did you know? Did you know, did you know-o-o? Did you know, did you know? Did you know, did you know-o, oh?)

How did we get here?
Well, I don't know.
Was it the way you said you just "let go"?
Was it the way I couldn't fix the hole?

How did we get so torn apart?
Was it destined for us from the start?
Was it the universe pushing and pulling again?
Maybe all good things must come to an end.
Maybe monsters made messes of this, making a mockery of our first kiss.

You saw it coming,
I saw it too.
We saw it chasing, but didn't know what to do.

Can we still stop it?
I fear it's too late?
It beckons and gawks at us,
So it could be fate.

But- I don't want to let you go.
You don't want to see me cry.
I don't want to walk away,
And feel my whole heart die.

I'll burn you into my soul,
So please-
Please-
Please don't go.

Stop.
Remember.
It's far too late.
This old september love,
Has reached it's- expiration date.

Wait.
No, i can't take it.
Stop,
Cause i can't breathe.
I don't want to let you go,
But i know that our hearts must grieve.

The end.
I know.
But maybe Ill see you again,
In the timeless flow.
And after all is done and said,
Maybe we will have our clearer head.

Wait.
No, i can't take it.
Stop,
Cause i can't breathe.
I don't want to let you go,
But i know that our hearts must grieve.

I'll let you go now-
I-
I'll let you leave.

Captured in this gap in time
Where I am earth
Where I am mine
Making moments in this space
Where time is frozen
But I make haste
I still worry-
Here and there.
Will time thaw
And back I'll be?
I still think-
Back to then.
Back to when I screamed within
Back to when I scratched my skin and begged the skies for love.
I still think-
How far I've come.
I have a dream
He's magic
He's beyond.
He's grace and mystery and love and fun.
He's a sunflower and perennials.
He's the moon, stars, and sun.
I have someone.
I have someone!
Not just dark skies of gray or some warm body to pass the day.
Not just words of loving tone or someone to call my own.
I have someone who makes me whole,
Fills my body,
Hears my soul!
When he cries, I feel his pain,
When we love, our love still stain.
We know each other like the ocean knows the moon.
We move together in sync from morn' to well past noon.
And we make each other smile like watching a flower starting to bloom.
Oh, how I have someone.
Someone I don't want to let go.
But every summer I shudder gawking at the shimmering snow.
I don't want to lose them and fall back in that dark of mine
I want forever still to be captured in this moment in time.

In the moon's gentle glow,
We two, we strive, we glow.
Your dreams, they touch the sky,
Yet I'm stuck wondering why.
The shadows, they play their part,
In this dance, a work of art.
A growing void, a fraying thread,
Our love's tangled web, I dread.
I plead, my love, hear my plea,
In this dance of you and me,
A song unsung, soft and sweet,
Two hearts in the moonlight meet.
The rhythm's off, yet we still try,
Beneath the starry sky.
A subtle cry, too gentle to hear,
Yet love whispers, have no fear.
We stumble, tumble, try to hold,
A love story, both young and old,
In honey eyes, our spirits soar,
Underneath the moon, we explore,
With grace, we find our way,
In the night, we'll dance and sway,
Together in the shadows deep,
In your arms, I'll always keep.

In honey eyes,
I always falter;
such grace just out of grasp.
His towering dreams,
my striving never really seems to clasp.
I plead it is my best,
though my words fall weak and shy,
I'm a lover not quite perfect-
shame,
I often wonder why.
Lost deep in the shadows
and his vision slips away,
A growing void,
a cold abyss,
where our emotions often fray.
I beg my lover hear my heart,
The beats are far too soft,
For stallion as it may feel,
The goal grows more aloft.
It's too gentle,
just a subtle cry
Underneath our starry sky.

I found a star.
In gravel and dirt under mounds of land that I never knew could be dug, I scratched away.
I bled from my cuticles and nearly gave up, but suddenly I found a star.
I was just looking for a sign. A flower or something kind.
But it glowed like embers in a river of black. I found a star and I tried to give it back.
I said "You don't belong here. This doesn't feel right. I don't deserve this." And yet, he stayed. I told him he could leave, but I couldn't believe my eyes or my ears or  the touch of his rays and the smile in his gaze. Oh, how wonderful he is. I found a star. Now that he likes me- now that I know- I never want to let him go.
He shows me magic, he says things I've never heard. He teaches me. I try my best to learn. And I'm not perfect. Oh, I am extremely anything but. And he loves and glows upon my soul anyways. My cuticles could blister a trillion times more. My eyes could rain showers all day, but I would let them bleed me dry and give anything away- to keep this star. Oh, sweet star. My star, so kind. I would do anything to be by your side. To glow in your light and watch you in flight. Oh sweet star. Forever. A world I never knew. I would do anything to be there with you.
