A stark glance at starbirth
The haunting now replaced
In explosions of her music
Through the once forgotten place
The vivid red velvet
Of a redawning star
Once a time to remember
Forgotten still thus far
Born into wealth
Colliding within
Awakened refrains
Asleep in the din
Beginnings of nothing
New strawberry haze
Lost in her revolt
And lost in heaven’s gaze
Occasionally
A phrase holds on
It rises and rides through the seasons
Filed away, it fills, instills, chills, simmers
Echoes of a slight suggestion
Build in the background of a quiet mind
Until the chaos writhes
And breaks through the winsome din
It was but one simple phrase
Several years left behind
A lone sliver of paper
The words still on my mind
Choose a timid smile
Releasing hidden hopes
Sharing a heart’s slim beat
Grasp at love’s retreat
Dive into an instant
Where free-falling sorrows mete
The boundaries of today
Melding in the fray
Why not risk it all…
For the chance at even more?
Brave the song’s bright call
The words on tomorrow’s door
Lost in metered colors
Surrendered to the fall
Be the you that beckons
Hear the song’s bright call
I set aside my passions
Waiting for your hand
Dancing in the silence
A lost and broken man
I gladly fell asleep
Denied the rising tide
Waited on the shore
For the moment you’d arrive
I changed my whole vibration
To be in tune with you
Hoping for a moment
When you would see the truth
I risked my life on chances
Forgot forever’s way
For just one final dance
Just to hear you say…
One word…
Yes.
Let me first feel
Then let me be set free
Help me to release my oppressors
And see the truth in me
Let me be healed
Of all that holds me down
Reveal to me the life that’s mine
As I don the gilded crown
Open now my eyes
To perfection that awaits
Show to me the way
Of Love’s now open gates
