there is a winter morning you didn’t know me yet it probably was snowing, i wonder what was said of the days quickly going to what will come ahead i don’t know if i can ever love someone like that you took her to the hospital and put her in the bed i can only think about that day and what it meant when the doctor came out and said, “you have a daughter now” now how does it seem to rearrange, all the images in my mind believe that it happened to me like i was lost but it happened all the same i can hear you singing still wake up in the morning so the morning comes where has it gone now where has it gone i’ve seen photos of the living room, we didn’t have a lot and the house needed some work done so you did it all yourself for a feeling of family a place we could call home now home so comes another year now did you ever even think we’d both be back here looking out at this beautiful place seeing nothing but the glow of memory and a void in our vision where she would be it comes and goes i come home, then i go home how can it be that the days go on and the red bird sings it’s red bird song it happened to us and it’s happened before and it happens all the same i can hear your singing still wake up in the morning let the morning come sing me a song please sing me a song i can hear you singing still wake up in the morning let the morning come she’s in the birdsong she won’t be gone

you are the kind of person that comes from the flower’s center you landed in this dimension there’s love in all your senses your arms out wide while you’re inside there crying look through an open window your eyes keep so much treasure hear what the wind will teach you feel how your body sings with the world outside inside in color and the world inside you always only light inside you now only wild inside you now i think it’s the long walk to the next part of your life will you hold me until no more you are the kind of person i want to show it all to come through the open portal it sparkles like sun on water the way we speak our names it’s the same as blowing breezes across if i can’t live without it i can’t live at all if we can’t live without it we can’t live at all i’m a dream i’m a fraction i’m somewhere between the near and the far of the butterfly’s wing there’s sound that we hear and sound that we sing and sound that we use to say “i love out so much” oh, the light inside you now oh, the wild inside you now maybe there’s something that takes us beyond this and flowers like spring in our arms

Two Ways 02:36
two ways through your eyes one in waking life while i was dying one a fabric of time, at the lake it was winy and bright my first memory of life energy, you comfort me when i don’t know where you come from family, don’t let me go to the place i don’t want to come back from i think you knew it well your way through the magic eye listening in the dark to the mind not afraid to die homegrown laughter, and a movie star smile taught me how to see the pain and joy in this life breathlessness, how did that come to be? and why do you keep getting father away or is it just the plane, we live on today, and can we escape, become something of fate, and is it a long way?

i think i’m alive i think i’m alive too much on my mind too much on my mind take me show me all things that i have never known and do not say goodbye do not say goodbye do not say goodbye i know i am strong i know i am strong seeing it alone listening alone to that organ drone after all is done do not say goodbye

i waited while the light leaked through the door over wooden floors melody came flooding in our window was held open with a 2x4 and i wished for aliens to come in and study my body but that oak tree, in the front of the yard the piles of leaves, the mountains and creeks we had a home once, what a funny thing we had a home once, supernaturally starlight over California skies, driving through the night to find out whether to follow that dark the feeling of life there is no memory no growing without all the painful things and that desert sky, it reminds me of the first time she took the light and sent it to my eyes we had a home once, what a funny thing we had a home once, there were fireflies

River's Bed 04:46
resurface from my arms the breeze is only here for a little while while i cry it will go back to my mother, my mother in the stars when that wind comes ‘round again it tells us everything’s changing stay inside me just a little while longer after i am done after i am gone comfort comes from no one comfort knows no one it’s always the darkest things i keep inside my thoughts you must be a lucky one to fall into the stars after all he came down the stairs, and saw her on the couch our bodies only here for little while til they melt and it’s not a bad life, take me to your river bed hold me down just long enough until colors rush my head til the sounds leave me head the ground sings loud now the ground sings loud now it’s always the darkest things i keep inside my thoughts you must be a lucky one to fall the ground sings loud now the ground sings loud now it’s always the darkest things i keep inside my thoughts you must be a lucky one to fall into the ground after all

you’re the only thing inside i can’t follow through the night you’re the only thing i want that i can’t find whisper every way to the water it shows me all the ways to be me then silence sci fi silence that silence sci fi silence i found what it means to be moving on coming from the thing i knew as love it comes to me like silver in a stream a conversation waiting for the wake then silence sci fi silence that science sci fi silence come you’re not what i have but what i love

Dandelion 05:05
dandelion, follow my eyes to the edge but not one step more it’s the sound that i need from your voice to belong to the shade that i choose in my life and the home is a garden that i can’t keep alive darkest light second cup of coffee we haven’t talked in a long time it’s the dark that i need from your eyes when i look to the sun as it falls from the sky your voice comes quietly into my mind asking “how do you feel in this day?” i wish i could be there, put my hand on your face here it comes now, fill up the floodplain wildest silence, i know it comes from somewhere we haven’t gone in a long time where does death leave it’s eyes in our lives why does life show us life when we look at the sky i’ve never seen summer like the summer this time the days breathing longer than the night let me show you the place where i go when i die, let me show you the place where i go when i die and the home is a garden that can’t keep me alive

Feathers 03:32
oh wait, it’s alright, i just remembered tomorrow hiding in the dark side of wherever i am and you, you are the feather the mystery of dreams and existence floating in the cross breeze will it never not pull my focus? becoming now it’s dark and what do we know love and friendship running through the garden one day to come, it will never feel real to miss you come now i’m ready to be infinitely open and it’s all the time we spend learning about the places we can’t access without a bit of death the creatures there are beyond our depth too much thinking about the past too little knowing what is sacred and what is left to haunt you doesn’t anything haunt you? i’m sure you have more to tell i have more to learn and yet this time i am knowing it comes like fire in my head someone told me once “you better not let this pass” sometimes i think i have too many pasts so what do you think should we just be here on the land listening to the sounds of life around us pass careful not to tread on anything needing rest
