·CuldeSac

There is a new life I see And her youth is a promise Of a life within a life A child's beautiful rebirth But it is funny to see What we choose to put away Brutal nature does its thing Friends are lost along the way But I feel one in my heart still I see silver pearls in her hair I smell the perfume on her skin Reminiscent of my first kiss So I spin within myself as I See myself somehow stuck forever There where I found myself My dog sleeping on the floor Come to see what it is A myriad of me A myriad of you To take a walk outside Arriving at first To find God there A friend to know To walk away with Since my youth I could feel the turn Of the seasons coursing through me In a sense that is beyond the five It is like a euphoric wind in smell But much moves where there is murder With a lot to gain and more to feel In the mirror blood drips down my face With a tooth pick upon which I versify Lines to unveil the eye that is lidded To know myself without a given name To talk of mind, body and soul Merging with the breeze that blows But time stands still for no man My grandfather told me through tears So I forced myself to learn to play The instrument that chimes the music That could calm my mind and soothe it A stable fellow provides others comfort And here lies the truth of the matter The sweetness of a selfless life Spiced with laughter and some hedonism For there is nothing like a good balance It is much akin to a tone right in tune And it dances in its own waking season Where I found a bed by the window To close my eyes to inhale the cool air To let it pass through me just like this Visitation of my meaning
