Her Secret Seas
I’m jumping in head first
I don’t care how deep it is
She bleeds beauty so well
It seeps through cracked walls
My fingers paper-cut
and aching to a beat
From writing, turning pages
I’d give them all to her
She lays her head somewhere
on some far away cloud
to listen as the rain falls
on some far away boy
I hardly even know her
So curious, this silent spell
I’m electrified through distance
Roads, skies, and mountains
If she would have it so
I would find her in her bed
Asleep on some silver dream
And humming my song
Awaiting patiently a signal
That I am free to take off
A granting of passage
To traverse her secret seas
