Year

And the moment gave to the cadence
And the hush fell into the silence
And the gravity befell the brevity of the call.

The glamour faded quickly
The audacity slipped away
The quiet acquiesced for a day.

And the day for a year turned a second
While the birds cried for hours not a tear
And the last words on lips laid unspoken
This year, this year, granted wishes, this year.

Crush

Butterflies, fly butterflies
And fill the space that awakens
The tossing and turning of currents inside
The tortuous feeling of welcome and sprite

Follow, now follow
Sweet valentine of the soul
And sing oh my serenity
The beating that you know

That tremor that courses
Awaken! Awaken!
Tonight is the night! Awaken!
To see the other half
To make a complete whole
Complete.
