Stick Figure Drawing
Lovely I'm in the morning and when the sun shines I'm feeling all right.
Some days I'm not too sure if I've arisen in the dawn or evening not gonna lie
Learned in a school on Sunday put a fear of snuff out in me
He said through those eyes "one day you're going to die whose side are you for if we pick out a war?"
and let the news sink in while I tried not to laugh or cry, could have done both,
And put what he said in a stick figure drawing at a Sunday school and won his approval, I thought him a fool,
still do.
Lonely the sun has risen and in my prison of isolation I see all the clouds have fled
I see where that inevitable rhyme would like to take me but I've been on guard for those thoughts in my head,
One of them might find their way in and then to spread it's fear and doubt throughout my house.
What kind of enemy fights a game of fear against a man who has nothing to lose?
I'd let thought fly until it came out the other side coughing and fighting for breath, found no host willing in my head, fueled by my heart, watched out for by my guts,
resolve,
push through.
Likely the sun an enemy of another time has become my only friend around now,
Nothing else except a squirrel of fearsome eye has come around to visit my ground,
Sometimes I shake a fist at the shade cast outside, sometimes even weeds wither in the sunshine,
But not a drop is wasted now. I'm changing up and charging, I'm getting a whole lot more expansive on the inside,
Tried to hold on to the best of thoughts once
I don't need to now.
Write them in a song,
Echoes on and on
Lovely I've reached the evening and now I've come to the veiling of nights revealing
The stars above the twins the dogs, old accomplices of my interior mind,
Moon and the bracelet and the sisters and shining array,
All of my oldest friends have each been shining in space,
Meet the gaze,
Feel the burn,
Every night I'm eternal,
Eternally good.
lovely I'm in the morning and when the sun shines I'm feeling all right
