Days and dreams as big as

Days and dreams as big as
A cloud, a sea, a sky
Our thoughts as far as stars
Hearts caught in hi's and bye's

Beaming with happiness
Bright as the sun is lit
And Love, greater than life
Which is only a flit

Inside, the ghost of me

Inside, the ghost of me
Melancholy empath
Unable to rejoice
Tired of the long warpath

My heart on an axis
It's turning with the world
The hope and suffering
The aged and the curled

Agonizing over

Agonizing over
Fractions and particles
The perfect adjectives
Phrases or articles

Like a good carpenter
Always measuring twice
Nothing written by chance
Or the throwing of dice

Significant to you

Significant to you
Your dreams live on treetops
We are common in Hope
The climbing never stops

I will spot you should you
Ever fall to the ground
I will cheer "go higher"
Your success can be found

Significant to me

Significant to me
A memory, a charm
A trinket that's timeless
A perpetual farm

A fixed cloud in the sky
A thought that never leaves
Here as long as I'm here
Until the last breath heaves

Do I feel more than you

Do I feel more than you
What color is your blue
Are both of our truths true
This is the state we're in

I give you back your shoes
The miles of avenues
Always seeing your views
I now feel my own skin

In this twilight moment

In this twilight moment
Thoughts pass through a prism
In the broken beauty
Once held like a prison

There in the "in between"
Like spaces between words
The pause in openness
The release of white birds
