the things i have in mind-written with john
(I think it is telling me to sit still like this and reflect for a moment)
the rain brushed her hips along the fingertips of the mountains
someone is grinding a tear drop of mine between two stones
the moon is no help to me now
light sings a squeaky lullaby and i am lost to the rhythm
kicking my feet inside the womb of this sun
though I do not remember dancing or listening
she was a whisper that cried into a mountain
and I was her fantasy, slipping thoughtlessly into a dream
she was a wraith singing songs of longing
and the loveliest one of all was the one she sang to me
i followed the sound up the mountain
she was a faceless vision and my steps never faltered
the curve of time disappeared into the horizon
she was behind me, like a puzzle pressed against the sky
a sky giving birth to the back of my mind
she touched my hand and nodded upward
eyes alight with the shimmer of a summer moon
it's all impulse, there's very little conscious thought to it
