Saturn Return
Weeds and flowers line my pockets
As I got one foot out the door
Memories fade in antique lockets
Knowing you won't see me anymore
When Saturn returns, I'll find my way
Fumbling over roots and branches
Always on the run
All I know is what I offer
Floating as a feather in the breeze
I soak you in and tuck you under
Lost in a swell of the sea
As I turn to face my shadow
I fall into the light
Splashing pools of mirror stillness
I meet pain with delight
This life's got me all hot and bothered
Grown yet singed by the sun
Enchanted moonlight has me wondering'
If you're the only one
Calling birds mark the passage
To the other side
I begin and end this chapter
With love and peace of mind
Don't come to me if you can't hold me
With both arms
I am soft but wild in nature
Weathering my own storms
When Saturn returns, I'll find my way
Fumbling over roots and branches
Always on the run
