Welcomed rise
Every ray birth-bright
Even in silence, bloom
Stamp the snow with you
The relics fell
But only you hold the way
I'd try, but never find it though
Despite the claims I'd make to wishing wells
I'd grabbed the hook, but couldn't look
Molten again, a trail began
Through pin hole nights, let out the light
To grow and thrive in winter's height...
Dog ear on the page, roots awaken as winter finally wanes, oh the rain...
Cherished nights
Fill the growing hive
Was worth a stinging for
Green light from your shore
The fire's high
Twist the vines
Form a brand new spine
The pages swelling up
With the gold they've struck
Befriend the dice
The mounds of snow began to glow
And the sound of rain began to change
Those melting streams would finally meet
Project this light on all I see
Lose myself in blues, I give into the moons pulling me through, oh the view...

Carry the embers
As you polish the root
A smile on the table
And blood on the move
It’s time
Unearthed desire
This orbit feels new
Bathed in a warm light
Our garden’s in bloom
Looks nice
Faith in time - stray from the dotted line
Sunrise fights off the threat of night
It feels nice
Hadn't I drained it's light?
A surprise - horizon in sight

Shadowless

Night opens the vacuum of my eye
Brings everything into sight
The glare on the pane fades
Shows me a true place
Had to sink down so low to see
Strings that I'd strung on repeat
A fire in a cave makes
Shadows of true shapes
Standing there bare in a lightning storm
In flashes a picture forms
I see me again, cleansed
Rain is a good friend
Recreate from a molten core
More transparent than before
Swear not to forget
Shadowless portraits
Drifting away
The snow coats the lane
The moon shines a spotlight
A beautiful stage
It’s this that I’d keep
No matter how brief
The dirt tainted remains - unreality
But it’s come time to sweep the periphery
Abandon the carpet for what’s underneath
And cherish the view
The ugly but true
The journey was painful
So keep it with you

The Path

Autumn blew the ashes far and wide
Lent her moving hand, a patient guide
Shed the shield, carve the path, that leads inside
Looking for a moon to stabilize
Am I free to change or calcified?
Cut the thorns, there's no need, see what's seen
No that's not a voice of mine
Foreign spirit wrapped in vines
Need the tongue and limb aligned
There’s better marks to leave behind
Don't sink with the stones or get stuck in the orbit
Take all that you've known, shepherd towards the sunset
Open up the door and let the weather roll through
Ear down to the floor
There’s something - let me show you
