Brilliant Blue

I am standing still

This page I’ve yet to fill

With words describing thoughts

that dread

To leave my head

You leave me, dear, un-led

You are an ocean song

I can sing it all night long

I see the tune march through the room

In sound balloons

Then you feed me the moon

With a spoon

Overwhelm me

Show and tell me

Let me breathe the brilliant blues again

Up in arms

Don’t see the harm

So let me dream a scene from life back then

I want to sleep on a train

Let the whistle blow my brain

And I would dream of blurring trees

And twisted greed

That brings me to my knees

I want to move like a snake

Every bleeding red heart I’ll break

I’ll slither through the dim lit night

I’ll curl up tight

And shake before I strike

Overwhelm me

Show and tell me

Let me breathe the brilliant blues again

Up in arms

Don’t see the harm

So let me dream a scene from life back then
