If You Are to Bloom

I'm thinking of your wide open eyes

Smiling as they feed the nerves

That push the field of silver and the colorful lines

That only you could see like only you could do

I'm picturing a forcep in ice

That you would see if you could reach

And reconnect the engine to the delicate lens

But I just sit and wait for a blip to break the perfect little thin green line

I dreamt of jet-less high

Seeing clouds from the other side

And rolling softly until the underbelly shines

And the back skims through the steam

Feeding upturned mouths and sprinkling away

A dusty sleep you took too soon

And you, you need watering if you are to bloom

I'm thinking of your failing green eyes

Smiling as they greet the day

But they can't see me

And now I'm picturing us opening wide

And drinking down our days in haze and bliss

Together till it tumbles aside

But I just sit and wait for a rhythm in a perfect little thin green line

It's true so soon

And the coil speaks

I'd like to see us together

I'd like to lay my head low

I need to lean on a soft one

And bring the spin of the world to a halt

And the coil sleeps

And you've been gathering angels

And fading further each day

I love you now as I never

Remember my face as it quietly makes your way

I dreamt of jet-less high

Seeing clouds from the other side

And rolling softly until the underbelly shines

And the back skims through the steam

Feeding upturned mouths and sprinkling away

A dusty sleep you took too soon

And you, you need watering if you are to bloom
