sleepless
ocean moves in slo mo heavy falling waves feeling rises in me i track you through a darkness that shows me everything brightness under starlight and im wide awake your sound inside my head ive had this dream so many times its almost like my home im still wide awake your voice behind my eyes ive had this dream so many times my heart still racing through the cracks of starlight dizzy on my feet we twist in sideways find another space i rise up over darkness to see the world below kneeling prepare myself for flight and im wide awake your sound inside my head ive had this dream so many times its almost like my home im still wide awake your voice behind my eyes all that time that i have slept to wake up all the way into this moment as you paint the stars in for me in a night that holds no fear we touch the barren places so starved for where we are and im wide awake and wondering as i try to feed this shining that lives where i cant touch though im sure ive always known you -
said
alone
in the deep and silent shade
of a dark and olive night
we stand together
soul
we feel it brightening
over the things we cherish
stirring up the song of a waiting dream
the dawning hurts our eyes
the four walls pull slowly apart
and we walk in places we never knew were there
to the soaring sound of my heart
where we walk in places we never knew were there
a sudden rush of light
the door is opening wide
light
spilling through the cracks
and flowing over
pulling all things together
the view gets slowly clearly as morning comes
and so the word is said
the four walls pull slowly apart
and we walk in places we never knew were there
to the soaring sound of my heart
where we walk in places we never knew were there
shining
over the things we cherish
stirring up the song of a waiting dream
and so the word is said
-
dawn song
so gently so awestruck so wondering standing with hands by my side in a daze of light that keeps us afloat here comes the beautiful calming those cries of the soul floating like prayers downstream all before me i lay down my life in the snow and the brightness inside of me sings defenceless forgotten unhidden the marks and the scratches we bear they heal their way to a calmness of strength so calmly perfection unhidden raising the standard of peace raise it high like a flag for my soul -
snowbrow
i step gently
into the light of what ive known
the seasons wash over me
and so i live
from day to day
life
curling round my ankles
straining
ice in a crevice
bracing against the stone
i know its going somewhere
this liquid flow
straining towards something
a place weve never been
a story to be told
of where we go
