Sleeping at Last

I wrote it down in the winter of 1610. Just a secret under lock and key until then. While collecting the stars, I connected the dots. I don't know who I am, but now I know who I'm not. I'm just a curious speck that got caught up in orbit. Like a magn

If i could rearrange my words, I'd say what i mean. If i could learn to count the cards, I'd risk everything. Imagine how brave i'd be If i knew i'd be safe. If i could only know the end, I'd be a prodigy of faith. If i had a treasure map, oh the ans

I had a good dream- We built a home. It was far from perfect, But we made it our own. We lived a good life, We gave and we borrowed. It was far from perfect, But we made it our own. When everything around us changed, we felt okay. No learning curve c

Hold your breath and count to 28. Change is slow but I feel it taking shape. Folding over us like waves On origami ocean tides, we sway Like blueprints constantly being rearranged. Over microscopes we plan and strain. The finest print in the whitest

May these words be the first To find your ears. The world is brighter than the sun Now that you're here. Though your eyes will need some time to adjust To the overwhelming light surrounding us, I'll give you everything I have. I'll teach you everythi

We can dance if we want to We can leave your friends behind 'Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance Well they're no friends of mine I say, we can go where we want to A place where they will never find And we can act like we come from

The branches have traded their leaves for white sleeves All warm-blooded creatures make ghosts as they breathe Scarves are wrapped tightly like gifts under trees Christmas lights tangle in knots annually Our families huddle closely Betting warmth aga

We were married by the ocean We were tethered by the sea We tied strings around our fingers To remember our ideals I'll be brave when you are frightened You'll be strong when I am weak in the knees I'll be calm when you have had enough of these rushi

hurry, hurry up and wait is how the waiting game is played. a thousand moving parts keep score inside the watch we can't ignore. so let's hurry, let's hurry up and wait. much too tired to try, much too stubborn to quit, on an island in between the co

have you read the script? could you picture it? - is it worth the risk? everything i love is on the line, on these neon signs. but i need to know- when you looked away, was it something that i said? was it something that i said? well okay, okay, i ne

when all of the pieces align, when the balance is clearly defined, we'll sigh and we'll settle down for the first time. but held in museum display, time pulls us further away. and when we rebuild it, all of the details fade. into the tide, where the

dear wilderness, be at your best. her armor is thin as the fabric of her dress. i know the rules: the weaker trees bend. but make her immune when your temper storms in. when she gains her balance, be as still as you can be. when she's climbing branch

You taught me the courage of stars before you left. 你离开之前 教我领会星辰挚勇 How light carries on endlessly, even after death. 微光如何奔流不息 即使在消弭之后 With shortness of breath, you explained the infinite. 你呼吸轻浅 向我讲述无垠恒永 How rare and beautiful it is to even exist. 多么稀

When we woke up The world was figured out Beyond the beauty we've dreamt about. This brilliant light is brighter than we've known, Without our darkness to prove it so. Still, we can't help but to examine it, To add our question marks to periods. At t

The night sky once ruled my imagination. Now I turn the dials with careful calculation. After a while, I thought I'd never find you. I convinced myself that I would never find you, When suddenly I saw you. At first I thought you were a constellation.

Oh, our futures were written with crayons in coloring books It was misspelled and outside the lines and we loved how it looked Like the crooked hem of your favorite childhood dress And the holes in my jeans from years of carelessness I know since we'

You fixed your eyes on us Your flesh and blood A sculpture of water and unsettled dust And there was bad blood in us We learned our lesson Genesis to the last generation So we wrestle with it all The concept of grace The faithful concrete As it break

with golden string our universe was clothed in light. pulling at the seams, our once barren world now brims with life, that we may fall in love every time we open up our eyes. i guess space, and time, takes violent things, angry things and makes them

Bright and early, Through the curtains, The sun comes pouring in. Filling glasses up with diamonds, Stirring where I've been But it's all trigger and effect. Dominoes at their best. In the end I'm told It taught me everything I know. That the wreckag

You and I in a little toy shop Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got. Set them free at the break of dawn 'Til one by one, they were gone. Back at base, bugs in the software Flash the message, Something's out there. Floating in the summer sky
