Do you turn away from eyes that sing on nights filled with emotion Never wondering if you could drown in your imagination Without understanding all the poetry that dances in your heart Warming words of choice, in your tongue of fascination
Do your hours exist in a sky familiar with moments such as these Is there nowhere to look for heaven free of possession Where words do not cry out to be contemplated by your pen To become lovely music giving light to your obsession
Can one learn to be absent from this transparent house of glass And remove this flowing ink that runs within their veins Still breathe without giving out a subtle handful of their soul Each time a word calls out to be painted in a refrain
I cannot turn from eyes that sing on nights filled with emotion My heaven is this possession in which I freely drown You may not understand the poetry dancing in my heart Still I will write, until I become dust, in the ground
