Encore

I know just what to do
with that incense and these candles; 
I’ll just go cut off all the lights
I know just how to vibe;
Sing to me with that guitar 
so I can memorize your song;  
So I can sing  it when I need to
when everything feels wrong; 
Sing to me with that guitar 
fill my mind with only calm 
so I can hear your echo floating, 
Breathe a little easier in the dark;
So I’ll just go cut off all the lights  
let the candle burn all night long; 
I promise I’ll still want more
after every single song;
The desire will never flicker,
forever is never enough;   
After every single song 
I’ll give you what you want; 
I’ll still be screaming,
“Hit me hard with an encore”.

Made me smile. Being a hippie and a meditated I liked this relaxing write.
