Blast

Long road to travel
 Dusty summer days
 Sweat builds between warm hands holding
 She picked a yellow flower for her hair
 And danced along the dirty road
 Without care
 Many miles to travel
 Yet we could already be here
 No destination 
 Running free
 No one around no landscape to see
 Roll with me baby she said
 As she danced down a hillside
 Ripping her dress
 Flower petals dropping
 Trailing where she’s been
 Spinning around and down
 Over and over she laughed
 This world is her playground
 We danced until the sun has set
 Making love till the rise again
 Connected together
 Passion Binding
 This world is our Playground
 She asked am I your Juliet
 Answered no
 Stopped in her tracks and she let go
 I have something to give you she smiled
 Leaving into the tall grass
 Blast
 Running with whipping blades in my eyes
 Searching for her trail
 A clearing where she fell
 Gun in her hand
 Bleeding heart
 With a note that read
 You were my Romeo
 And I closed my eyes
 One bullet left
 Cool metal on sweat
 Blast
 Don’t cry
 Don’t cry
