Like a heavy stone lid
Over the vessel of my soul
You overshadowed all,
All the buds of flowers
Which within me desired
To grow.
S R Mats Dec 2022
Crawl into my branches
Let me cradle you
How can we go
From one to two
If you remain
On the ground

Burnt orange is beginning to softly paint the sky
Soon the sunrise will shine full light into my eyes

This is when the midnight blue that was above
Is starting to turn that shade of blue that I love

I am sitting, sipping, waiting for the full light of day
Coffee in my cup is still warm; I'm waiting for the first ray

You're in and out of my life.
I don't know what to do
When I'm falling in love,
In and out, of love with you.

I don't know what is wrong.
What is wrong with me?
And, I don't know what
To do about it.

What do I do about you?

You shouldn't long for the past,
- They say
But, I long for it anyway

I close my eyes, drift away, not good
- They say
Not worried, I do it anyway.

I  see it is only normal, it's okay
- No matter what they say
So go ahead, just drift into times past

As long as you do not stay

She has a kind of magical thinking about her life.
She sees her name written across the sky, in stars,
In clouds, in sunbeams, written in the sunset.

She finds a penny, knows it was placed there, especially for her.

In her magical thinking, the universe is cheering her on,
Setting her up, leading her to somewhere she doesn't know.
In her magical thinking, she finds the delights and she goes. . .

I can feel your cello
Through my soul
I am a string

Your bass vibrates through me
Holding me like a treble
We do not rest

Listening
