Searching through thorns
With blood from the
One's who have already been
Through before

I ***** my eyelid
Feel red warmth flitter
Into the bag
That I have been carrying

This is getting harder
Or I'm just trying to hard
Where is the sound that
Bounced off the walls from before?
She was sad when she left today

At night I hear the present go
And a new present awake
I'm alone here as if dissolving
Into another life, yet with the same name
I cannot stand the sounds I make
Aching, moaning, stoning
This life and that life and all the lives
That spin and swirl around me

I'm quite sick of it

Feeling more cornered in ambiguity

Than blessed

I'm having trouble focusing doc
There might be something wrong with me
"There's something wrong with everyone," he said
Think about it or not, one day you'll be dead

At night the horses trample through my living room
Letting the moonlight stream in through the leaves
When I'm learning I feel most like myself
When I'm serving only a slave
There are so many slaves I see through the days
That it's hard to see who will be left when the flood hits
And who will be saved

Require the tongue that touches the stars fury
Everything here is about rhythm
Train on the tracks souls on the line
Everyone here on Earth's only got so much time

An ending for a diva whose only wish was
Kisses in the nighttime under moonlit fishes
And a fog horn sounding
Everything astounding
Love, at last, bringing no ounce of sorrow

I love you only
I love you truly
And if I get
A little unruly
Please recall what I said
And not let me scare you
Away from my bed
