Through the woods and over the train tracks,
they left for days but came back different.
It wasn’t soon long gone before they found out that,
Some teeth are sharper than others.
A a sharp knife isn’t effective for as long as a claw hammer.
To be blunt.
We never had enough, we never made waves with the velocity to make a strong swimmer drown in tough waters.
Dogged deep teeth and red wine stains in the carpet.
They don’t recede easily or back down without a fight.
there's no shame in command, but theres no virtue in cheap tricks.
We didn’t see them for days,
that barbed wire fence with it’s nylon victims flapping in the wind.
Battle ground house holds, but peaceful playgrounds.
We stayed until the bells rang and then we slowly walked home.
I carved your name into a tree, or was it mine. I can’t remember,
the tree says Nathan, so I guess that says so much.
I left my scarf in those woods. I wonder who found it.
maybe it’s still there or decayed in time.
who knows,
the woods might have the answers if we could only would ask the trees.
