In this drain I sit alone
winding down these thoughts of mine...

The words I've never heard; sights I've never seen
A dance I cannot feel; a song I cannot sing...

I suck it in
absorb it and forget it...

Today we could revive
We could perish...

Rest slickly coated rocks
tucked in close to chest...

I cannot help but ask
Why the sun comes out each morning...

Wild as the flowers
left out in the sun...

There was a time when I was standing still
And I could sense the earth inside my veins...

Like untouched paws
I ache with contact...

Snow like fallen love
and rosy window nightlights...
