She walks in starlight
Coming of age
In a riptide.
Her lone synth chords
Reminiscent of an
Open mic motel.
Burning multi-layered sound
We don’t fear the dark now.
There’s room enough for two
And Technicolor in a
Hot air balloon.
I can taste the comfort
On another world with you.
Delicate piano dodging
Missiles from the ground and
Candy playing on the radio
Can’t sing like we can hum
And feel the undertow.
