I'm where the flowers will find me
In this evening summer bloom
They hold my gaze, steady and soft
As I reach underneath me for my roots
I'm gathering me up
Thread by thread
Weaving moments that lie forgotten
Against lilting summer light
I'm holding my fractured petals close
Wilting, as we all do
Only to resurface
When I remember what it means to be whole
I think about life within the layers
They remind me of the trees
As we wait for our roots
To make themselves known among the soil
Bare footprints emerging in early morning earth
And like all things endless,
I capture this moment in a way that feels like me,
Pressing pieces of the earth
Into a familiarity I could live in forever

Meet Me In The Marigolds
04:03

Isn't it cruel how the things we carry
Settle for truth within our dreams
Sewn by a thread not woven to last we're tying up the seams
Like a deep breath under water
Keeping dry in the pouring rain
Clinging to pictures from our past that never focused on the frame
And we were walking on eggshells
We didn't know ourselves well
So let's start leaving the pieces of things that were broken behind
In our dreamlike state of mind
Let's give it a try
Only in time will our memories soften
Like holding honey in your hands
Instead of soaking it all in
Slips through your fingers like it's sand
Searching for flowers in concrete
We never were completely free
If our time's an illusion
I wonder how I'll fit in too
Let's give it a try
Let's give it a try
Meet me in the marigolds
It's here I wanna stay
Rather be lying in the meadows
Than holding onto all this weight
And all the things we left unspoken
Pull me under like an ocean
Let's work this out let's make things right
We can somehow
Let's give it a try
Let's give it a try
Meet me in the marigolds
It's here I'd rather stay
I'm sick of biting my tongue with the things I never got to say
Searching for flowers in concrete
Oh isn't it bittersweet
Searching for flowers in concrete
It might as well be obsolete
The night it slips away
It's here I'd rather stay
Not holding all this weight
Let's give it a try

Under The Waves
03:41

I've given you all the pieces of the ends I couldn't meet
To make space for all the weight that we both carried underneath
Who I was and who I am
The softest parts of me
And even though I needed space
And even though I can't erase
The things we thought we would be chasing to our graves
But now we've changed
And I stay here
And I wait here
I am treading through lost threads and promises you couldn't keep
I'm still learning to hold onto moments far and in between
And even though I needed space
And even though I can't erase
The lives we thought we would be chasing to our graves
But now we've changed
And I stay here
And even though I needed space
And even though I can't erase
The lives we thought we would be chasing to our graves
But now we've changed
And I stay here
And I wait here
And I wait here
And I stay here
And I stay here
And in my dreams I sink further under
When you're gone
I'm all alone in the rush of the waves
They pull me under and I lay here
I'm submerging in the things I've held onto
When you're gone
I'm all alone in the rush of the waves
They pull me under and I lay here
And I lay here
And I lay here

You're sunken in a dream of better things to come
You're filling all the cracks and corners with your doubt
Now it's time to face your ghosts
Your garden's long overgrown
And now you'll reap what you sow
Your leaves unfurling
You're pouring salt into the wound that never closed
Beneath your petals wilting in the afterglow
But it's time to face your ghosts
And now you'll reap what you sow
Your garden's long overgrown
The vines unfurling
Slowly sinking
Wishful thinking
To hold me close then strip me bare and dry
Wishful thinking
Slowly sinking
To hold me close then strip me bare and dry
Slowly sinking wishful thinking
Hold me close then strip me bare and dry
I'm alive
Your seeds are soaking in the last of the day's light
Spiraling further the sun lends its way to night

Feels Like Honey

Take
Take my
Take my hands
Take my hands
These searching hands
Sometimes my mind wanders
It muses it ponders the spaces in between
The spaces in between that leave me from feeling complete
Sticky sweet
Sometimes my mind weaves gold through
The spaces in between
That leave me behind unaligned
They spiral upward like vines on a tree
Thin as the air that I breathe
The sticky sweet spaces in between
Sticky sweet
But nothing is as it seems
And it feels like honey as I wake from a dream
And it feels like honey all the spaces in between
And it feels like it feels like a dream
And it feels like honey like vines on a tree
And it feels like honey all the sticky sweet
And it feels like honey to me
Take these take these take my take
These hands
These shaking hands these worn out hands
These hands
These wistful hands do see
These trembling hands do see
These gifted hands do speak
These hands
Nothing is as it seems
And it feels like honey like vines on a tree
And it feels like honey all the spaces in between
And it feels like it feels like honey
And it feels like honey as I wake from a dream
And it feels like honey it's sticky sweet
And it feels like it feels like a dream

Sounding Board

It's subtle just a whisper now
Vines circle me until I'm bound
Bones sprouting in the dirt
Tend to your words until they grow
I'm wilting in your shadow
They hold me here
Spiraling further
Withered away
I can't be your sounding board
Withered away
To hold
It's subtle just a whisper now
Slowly wilting in the sound
Bones sprouting in the dirt
Withered away
I can't be your sounding board
Withered away
To grow

Weight on solid ground
Pulls me further down
Let go, let go
Let all the flowers hit the floor
Wilting in the sound
Pulls me further down
Let go, let go
Let all the flowers hit the floor
All the flowers fade
Let go, let go
Let all the flowers hit the floor
All the flowers fade
May it be
May it be closer to

All Things Endless

All things endless ever flowing
In our dreamlike state of mind
Gather me up thread by thread
I'm tethered to spaces between
Meet me in the marigolds I'm
Blooming in the afterglow
All things endless ever fading
May it bring me closer to you
The spaces between me and you
But nothing's ever as it seems
All things endless ever drifting
May it bring me closer to you
The spaces between me and you
But nothing's ever as it seems
All things endless
Ever dreaming
Ever drifting
Ever fading away
Ever dreaming
Ever drifting
Ever fading away
And it feels like
And it feels like
And it feels like a dream
And it feels like
And it feels like
And it feels like a dream
