of the storm

I awoke one day with empty chest

No covers on my bed

So I walked inside my own footsteps

To find what I had missed

The colors all seemed brighter

All the smells they seemed to change

At this moment I did realize

How infected I had been

The answer was no antidote

No prescription to re-fill

No salary or monopoly

Just to bankrupt when I spin

The answer was in letting go

Of the things that fork the track

Don't take the time to love something

If it can not love you back

Now the sand is clear

From the corner of

The eye

Of the storm

So now I keep my cloths in backpacks

Just in case I have to leave

And I threw the rake out in the yard

To decay with the leaves

Just as winter brings the snow

And autumn brings the fall

I will not hide

No will no hide

Because the structures they may change

But the seasons stay the same

The time we have to love will fade

So watch just what you chase

And as the fire turns to ash

And your hands they start to shake

Recall the ambition to rebuild

Is the only thing it takes

Now the sand is clear

From the corner of

The eye

Of the storm
