one of these days
in a world not of my own
i will cast off my doubts
and search for Us
a new land
one of these days
in a world not of my own
i will slice my hands
on grasses made of steel
by neatly gathering hay
to thatch the roof
one of these days
in a world not of my own
i will break my back
as i stack the walls high
and turn stone into Gold
one of these days
in a world not of my own
i will find a thousand kitemakers
to craft a thousand black kites
to celebrate this house
one of these days
in a world not of my own
my bones will chill
as august draws near
but have nothing to wear
one of these days
in a world not of my own
i will clad myself in leaves
someone! lend me a sleeve!
i must clothe the ones i love
in the one shirt that i own
one of these days
in a world not of my own
i will dress in thorny vines
that i have picked
deep within the mountains
This,
to let you know i am here.
one of these days
in a world not of my own
the full blood moon rises
and Smiles like Mocking Deity
it is a herald
of the distance between
and on that day
in a world that i have made my own
broken,bleeding,cold and enraptured by love
i beg you to visit
and i will ask the clouds
to hide the moon
if only for a short while.
