I Must Apologize for Their War
It is winter in my soul
Spring is on my fingertips
Summer is resting under my toes
Fall is laying dormant in my hair
Flowers are rooted in my teeth
Trees lay planted in my spleen
Snow lays over me
Cold blanket of numbing pain
Hibernation of normal thoughts
A sleeping land
My foot prints can't be traced
Why do I live like this?
Emotionally stung
A balloon filled with hot air
I can't flout up to clear blue skies
I can only blow around the ground
The birds and bees
Bars and beatles
Fox and frogs
And all four and two legged things
All have a place
Contribute to nature's law
But nature is native
Binds me to no law
No guide lines to fallow
Im out side the rift of chang
I can feel winter in to spring
Have helped spring to summer
And seen summer die into fall
Yet their meanings are lost to me
Why do they exists?
Why do the week feed the strong?
Why do elephants morn their dead long after the flesh is gone?
Why did the fish forget they were swimming and allow their fins to morph into tails?
What forces the hart to beat?
Is it love?
Or just the mind playing tricks?
What do i have up my sleeve?
magician trick you will never see
It is winter in my soul
Spring is on my fingertips
Summer is resting under my toes
Fall is laying dormant in my hair
Flowers are rooted in my teeth
Trees lay planted in my spleen
I am what you see beyond your window frame
The crickets that play their villains
They play them just for me
In a hope to remind me that mortals have tear ducks
And that all of life crawled out of me
I am what dances with the grass and branches of trees
Lifting fallen leafs and pollinates the plants that lay beyond your eyes
I am what pushes and pulls the oceans waves that seem to merge with the sky
I am the rain that falls from the clouds and the thunder that accompanies the lightning strikes
I am the fire that destroys and warms you
Death is my son and Life is my daughter
I must apologize for their war
They fight to gain equal attention
And this world pays their price
Tainting you with their destruction
Instead of teaching you what they have to offer
Suffering has never been what i wanted for you
Yet suffering is all you will know
For i am no longer a part of your world
It is winter in my soul
Spring is on my fingertips
Summer is resting under my toes
Fall is laying dormant in my hair
Flowers are rooted in my teeth
Trees lay planted in my spleen
And you all live within my skin
Spring is on my fingertips
Summer is resting under my toes
Fall is laying dormant in my hair
Flowers are rooted in my teeth
Trees lay planted in my spleen
Snow lays over me
Cold blanket of numbing pain
Hibernation of normal thoughts
A sleeping land
My foot prints can't be traced
