MT Miller Jul 2015
A little sky is changing,
Tinge of grey on blue,
But the clouds are on my mind, now,
I leave the storm to you.
A little sky may thrash and fight,
And your boat may toss and tip,
But the sun must rise over all bad nights,
And so we'll right the ship.
MT Miller Jul 2015
Burn a match for me,
A single, solitary light
Please, oh god, I need it
Strike it up against my side
It's what I live for,
Searching for the flame
A fuse at high noon,
Nowhere near the night.
You turn your head away,
and I wonder why you still refuse,
Though I beg and plead and crawl.
"Get off your knees," you say,
I only shiver and I fall.
All I ask is a tiny match,
One half-an-inch of flame,
Give it, bring it, feed it to me,
One spark that calls my name.

— The End —
