Mar 2013
I remember passing a giant hole in the sky
And the sunshine pouring on me like molten rain
It burned me 'till it reached my heart
And there in began to quench it, so parched
Until I was sure I'd never thirst again

And as the golds and reds overcame me
Technicolor tears passed down these cheeks
As I looked upon the unrelenting sun
Its fountains pouring down and beating like a drum
Leaving my mouth closed and unable to speak

And those technicolor tears turned to glass in my hands
The heavens contained and compressed in the heat
And I stood there with the pearls called the sky
A gift from the sun and its constant shine
As it dripped from my hair down to my feet
