Down the avenue, under silver moon
I head for a blank page
For a love that’s true, In the vacuum
Of every endless face
Like a bubble forming around deceit
Like a carbon copy of a memory
Like a ricochet of the words they speak
Like a story telling on repeat
I feel it out
Slow Grower
I keep it in
Until it’s born
Like the dead embrace of a lover
Like the peace coming after a war
Its playing on
The cry of liar
And the slamming of the door
I am waking with it’s closure
Sweat relief I feel no more
The flesh of the anger
When woven to a metaphor
Is a little less in the fist of a father
A little more in the books on the wall
I’m a flashing glimpse of beauty
Like a dragonfly in a sunbeam
I’m the falling tear the willow weeps
For a moonlit fear of mortality
I am the ever itchy underbelly
Like walk within a cemetery
I am the river running underneath
I am the white flower with the golden beak
And I’m chaos in arrangement
I am freedom under rule
I teeter on the edge of derangement
Like a child at the gate of a school
I’m a sure thing, what a mistake
I’m a natural, what a fool
I am the longing gaze
Breaking from an archaic pool
I’m a proud slow grower
Im within until I’m born
I am the embracing self lover
For the crying of a war
And I forgive the name of liar
Staring at the sealed door
We were joining with it’s closure
Sweat relief I’m yours
And I echo
In your chamber
With recognition
That occurs
While swimming in the pond of a stranger
Then drowning in the eyes of the world
Swimming in the pond of a stranger
Then drowning in the eyes of the world
Swimming in the pond of a stranger
Then drowning in the eyes of the world
