Chasing the Fog

Born here upside down

Branches breaking skin

Kin to every wolf

Child of every sin

Timid on the rooftops

Colors coalesce

Rushing for the proof

Spoken under breath

How the stars still realign

So I might meet you here

In the middle of the message

Missive fallen on deaf ears

Broken, your apostle

Pieces fallen off

Epistles in the morning

Mourning for your loss

Mooring in a bay of remembrance

Shallow seas of never was

Bury loves mistaken

Sparks that sprout now shaken off

Silent places in between

My kingdom retrospect

No shade to cast your way

A sun still underground

Respecting circumspection

Suspicious of intention

Still flying past reflection

To save a sinking soul

Praying to forget the truth

Of a miracle undone

Coming to terms with this

No longer empty tomb

Retreat or circumnavigation

Uncertain of this globe

A path I must revisit

To bury this curse

A passionate verse

But I'm chanting in the void

Weak at the knees

And seeking new constellations

In stillness introspective

A closeness I've rejected

In pushing out to sea again

Under an ailing moon

Keeping at arms length

A moth here at the fringes

I find myself still getting burnt

In the middle of these bridges

Lost heart at a crossroads

Still solving for distance

Not orbiting any closer

Not worth having a round

Head-empty persistence

Buried ear deep in sand

Dug up and then retread

Covering the same ground

Chasing the fog

I've done my best

Set this aside

To be a friend

Maybe three's a crowd

And heavy is the head

And weary are the hearts

Of the trinity we've found

You, Me and This Brick Wall You've Built Between Us
