Your quietude fills the air and there's a mindful, restlessness that was beside me
|
Frail, thin thoughts that won't let go
|
And their trailings poison everything
|
And I swear I will never huddle at your feet
|
Too lost and too scarred to belong
|
Too tired and alone to go on
|
But then the dreams behind your eyes unfold and make you shine
|
And though my heart's so weary of stolen love
|
It always finds me
|
That witch's brew of fortitude and kindness
|
The faint, tranquil glow that shimmers where you go
|
Oh, I know, it makes no sense
|
But every time it brings that feeling back again
|
The light, and the love,and the hope
|
The haste of it all as it grows
|
The darkness of my light is sowing in my smile
|
