I slid between the days
Hid the unseen ways
I touched your face
A rushed embrace

All that I'm here left with
Is to fall for the theft this
Is not worth goodbye
It's a shot to the sky

Flying with no trail
Falling without sails
No burst of light
Just Goodbye
Falling into this
Calling the abyss
Looking for light
Just goodbye

Time slips like rain
Time grips like pain
I can't close my eyes
I chose the lies

That maybe this won't last
Baby this will pass
But lies don't stay
You've gone away

Flying with no trail
Falling without sails
No burst of light
Just Goodbye
Falling into this
Calling the abyss
Looking for light
Just goodbye

And so we glide on by we close our eyes
And say you will be missed
And the miles role by and the tears will dry
But I can only promise this.

When your flying with no trail
Falling without sails
Remember my eyes
When you said Goodbye
Falling into this
Lost in the abyss
Looking for light
Only finding goodbye.
My life lost some light.
When you said goodbye.

In her arms I found,
I could face the failing ground,
I could chart the noon day sky,
And keep the hours from passing by.

In her arms I lost my home,
And found them in her arms alone
Her palms a bed her elbows doors
To places only we know.

And then I leave them
And I'm like a hem
Torn at the sleeve
Whenever I leave
And the only way I'm darned
Is when I'm back in her arms.

Letters
A word
A phrase
That form a sentence.
It's a new beginning,
If you can see past the present,
At a glorious future,

Van gogh's crayon scribbles
Ramsay's teenage nibbles
Jordan's first shaky dribbles
And this thing,
A letter.

Your my highway girl,
I'm your backroad boy,
And you've become my joy

But when you see jet trails
your heart longs for rails
And steel and carriage wheels

And your mind takes wing
And your feet sing
For places they have never been

And I'm here hoping
That the trails on my arms
And the tales in my mind

Will be too much
To touch
And leave behind

So if you'll pack your bags
Put me in too
Cause home isn't home
Unless I'm home with you.

I am the line on the road
White black and grey
Isolated from the way
As I guide others home

I am the traffic light
That turns of at night
Because I cannot stop or go
Amber in the cold

I am the path
Less traveled for the wrath
Of wind and storms
That longs for a foots warmth

I am where others roam
And I am never home
I am the place none but the poor stay
I am the highway

I took her to the beach where we jogged on the sand.
She took my photo of her, my heart and my hand.
It was a beach we'd been on years before.
And we talked of our first date as we ran on the shore.

And I took her home and sang her a song,
Of all the songs I wrote i hadn't sung in so long.
And you wrapped and old string around my ring finger
And asked me if I'd be hers forever.

So we went where we met for the very first time
We shared a slice of pizza and I used all the lines
Cause I knew that you knew, that if I ever would ask
This would be the place and the way, but I passed.

And you punched me pinched me for pushing your buttons.
And I acted like I had no idea, and it was just sweet nothings.
And then we went to majestic and talked for a while,
Of all the times and dates before and how I made you smile.

And I took

Her mind a map, I'm lost.
Her mind, a map I lost.
Her lost mind, I map.
I map her loss.
I lost her.
Her loss.
Lost
