It is, yes
You threw your cards on the table
Swore Yea, I’m real
Only real people ever say that so I know it to be true
Real and true
until it wasn’t
Can i whisper the quiet truths here, since i know your reading attention is elsewhere and not on me now?
I liked your darkness,
recognized it,
it did not scare me,
mad...

whisper answers
Who was the one
who declared
i won't hold you to nothing you say? No I never said that nor do I believe it
What I beleive
is if you took the trouble to say it, or write it, or whisper it, or sing it or disguise it and I hear you
I hold you, for my thought is to thank you later for these kind gifts so i ho...

Tale Me
Tells you will tale me
I waited and waited, all my precious time I don't wait
You left me bitterly one winter night
I never hurt like that before.
Left only with your crime stealthing for my company before I knew you hadn't
Before I knew what's lost in the dark might not be alone
A lyric I hid for him & he heard me, he heard as a sharp call in the fall
he's been answering me in...

intent
Life is lived moving forward
but we only understand looking back
If I looked back from the future, I know what I'd see: your love surrounding me with a fierce light of protection
a soft blanket of gentle cushioning balance of support and admiration
It held me up in my darkening despair and led me through
to the other side, where I made it
It does me no good
to deny the br...

Hills
A week now I've been exploring your land, these sacred lands
The place where you grew and discovered What you loved, how this art raised you
so beautiful here
I wanna climb every hill and ask every question of you.
See you everywhere though you love elsewhere thousands of miles away and actually you are...

Only Wolves
My life is filled with love now, bright lights, even without all that snow
Not a romantic scent, but love nonetheless,
I walk by the ocean,
Consider, contemplate why I was sent for,
because I have arrived,
and I am fully here.
I thought I was following my heart, but that path veered sharply, suddenly towards a staggering terrifying dea...

Unseen Ice
Are you clearing your good name?
Blowing up all the ammo before setting fire to the barracks as planned?
Who is it that needs to know
Which song
Originated years back?
Me? Him? Her? You?
Who
Of course i knew
I knew already i heard them before i heard all of them
But sure seems bits got tweaked here and over there,
As you might do to cull your former recent roman...

Wildness
Unearthing a secret:
How to retain such sweetness
while letting go
love of love of you without the hope of you
You found me but I was not lost, oh how my heart and I liked each other then
lovers come and nonlovers go
belting melodies that never let me be
Seems unfair and also equisite, both at once
So many words fo...

A New Roof
Know you
Any benefits to this bewildering, barbed stumble through this dark forest into which you have brought me?
Confusing cutting beautiful song after song, always sounds the distance
In a tiny flickering glimpse of thickening light
Leading me through the aftermath
I follow and follow...

counting
I can't count on yours
you said i could but i can't
you don't stand by any kind of truth
much less my shamelessly abandoned ones
Time brags how she moves you; oh how she brags and mocks your bravado
You said
you won't hurt me no more
you won't hurt me no more
you won't hurt me no more
Well at least
you won't hurt me no more
