March 3, 2014

When my knees are replaced wrists bound in place these feet won't race these eyes can't change what they've seen

Find me

 

I'll be in trees high up where sun shines bright the longest day in

Creeks all waters flowed away there

Under the stairs in hide away I store my shame it comes to play I have to say what would it take for everything to

Stop

 

For a little while we dance I love you past your shirt and pants and then we sit and play and touch I feel afraid its just too much, too good

To be for me

 

As true as the leaves on the edge of spring, so real as water above my head. For you

Are a creature of all creatures

An animal of your own desire

And I am watching

Learning

Waiting

For you

To look

For me
