Not because it is what you want
not knowing what shape they’ll take
not knowing if they’ll be embraced
not knowing what shape they’ll take
not knowing if they’ll be embraced
but sometimes the sun is just right
and then there is you by my side
but sometimes the sun is just right
and then there is you by my side
waiting to bloom
through the ground
and when they finally come
I hope you’re still around
waiting to bloom
through the ground
and when they finally come
I hope you’re still around
to consume me whole
but even more than that
I need your warmth
to embrace my soul
to consume me whole
but even more than that
I need your warmth
to embrace my soul
as a colour unused
but one day I will paint her too
before run out the other hues
so I am not left with just the blue
as a colour unused
but one day I will paint her too
before run out the other hues
so I am not left with just the blue
that I always meet love with love
like it is music, and I must sing
without truly noticing that
only I wholeheartedly sway,
to notes you sporadically play
perhaps it is my naivety
that I hear the music and think
that you intend to keep singing
that I always meet love with love
like it is music, and I must sing
without truly noticing that
only I wholeheartedly sway,
to notes you sporadically play
perhaps it is my naivety
that I hear the music and think
that you intend to keep singing
and show it to me
as much as you can
I am far too prone
to becoming
a stranger again
and show it to me
as much as you can
I am far too prone
to becoming
a stranger again
I try to make sense
to see if they can be
pieced into love again
but if they do not fit
I cannot pretend
to understand
the jagged ends

is not a promised one
to walk with me
you must walk with love
and I will not leave
neither go or come
for I am only walking
where falls the sun
and if you do stray
I will lead you back my way
but only if between the light
is where you seek to stay
is not a promised one
to walk with me
you must walk with love
and I will not leave
neither go or come
for I am only walking
where falls the sun
and if you do stray
I will lead you back my way
but only if between the light
is where you seek to stay
to have named
your darkness
but I had to
encapsulate it
to lead you
out of it
to have named
your darkness
but I had to
encapsulate it
to lead you
out of it
fires like yours
times before
that only burn
what they had
promised to warm
fires like yours
times before
that only burn
what they had
promised to warm
or that you don’t read me
it is that I laid out my soul for you
and you didn’t come to see
or that you don’t read me
it is that I laid out my soul for you
and you didn’t come to see
must be infinite
to be able to
love like this
as if I am weaving
from a string
that never stops
unravelling
must be infinite
to be able to
love like this
as if I am weaving
from a string
that never stops
unravelling
because I am carrying
too many layers
I still need to let go of
falling
when I begin to
dismantle all
the pieces I know of
fallen
when I am finally
stripped down to
only the love
because I am carrying
too many layers
I still need to let go of
falling
when I begin to
dismantle all
the pieces I know of
fallen
when I am finally
stripped down to
only the love
but only if I can
take my peace too
but only if I can
take my peace too
