she is harmless, like the ocean crashing at your feet
if im honest, and i hope to be, maybe she'll be going where i go
the moon is rising, ever gradually over mountains and the sandy shore
and as i stare out, she slowly speaks to me, saying 'young hearts always beg for more.'
in your eyes, i see sun lakes calling.
when you cry, i feel my heart weeping
in the morning, as a red sun rises, my soul is expanding outwardly
illuminated by my inward light, still i turn away so cowardly
now i see it, crystal clearly now, so inviting, like an empty seat
but do i take it as it comes to me? or do i leave it and admit defeat.
