The Ash

I can unleash like a train Roaring down a track You don’t want me in your face When i’ve knocked a couple back These days I‘m quiet You make me still My head fills up with words I bend to your will And you’re just there You’re just you A smile whose corners grew and grew and grew All in good time A walking crawl to vine From the moment that you wake Deep breaths and solitary states Here thunder, roar Here raindrops, hum My big old empty house Becomes a drum. (?) It begs the question Did you try enough Don’t bring me in from the cold The streetlights are warm enough You’re something...better Takes my breath away When I fall down like a fool All leaves turn gray
