warm wild wind.

warm wild wind, what are you trying to tell me?

 

you swim through the trees so recklessly

 

what is it you long to tell me?

 

 

 

sometimes a whisper sometimes a roar

 

your swell it serenely surrounds me

 

and nudges me home to a familiar front door

 

where i fumble in darkness for keys.

 

 

 

you haunt through my hair

 

rushing against my ears

 

and always reverse on a dime

 

destruction occasional

 

seasonally sensational

 

what is you keep on your mind?

 

 

 

and once in my room, you greet me soon

 

and dance life through two tired curtains

 

i sit down to talk

 

but you suddenly stop

 

your message left vague and uncertain

 

 

 

the stir you possess still silent as all,

 

i drown in a stagnant sea

 

of aimless air that sifts through the hall

 

with no ambition or reason to flee

 

 

 

warm wild wind

please visit again

for my heart begs a simple inquiry-

under what spell are we?

people pondering the breeze-

 

what is it that you're longing to tell me?
