In Love Again

The leaf before the foot I fear for the crunching Between concrete and shoe To never be whole The leaf before the foot The light in my eyes I fear for it going out Doused by ice water To never guide my way again The light in my eyes The heart in my hands I fear a familiar but foreign feeling For it was never mine To lose it now I may never love again The heart in my hands I'm in love again... I am the leaf before the foot She birthed the light in my eyes And it's her heart in my hands I'm in love again!
