Lunatic
Lunatic:
You can call me a lune,
cause I'm crazy enough
to play the game of love
and think I can win.
I think I'm crazy.
The space by me is spinning,
and I'm seeing stars.
Dark shoes, scuffed soul.
A moonlight beam in the
night sky.
Silver dewdrop eyes mimic
Moonlight glinting in murky ocean tides:
Low to high, ebbing and flowing, cycles.
Always peering deep inside,
Subconscious dreams hide beneath the surface, waiting to be
Pryed open, Emerged, exposed to broad moonlight, bobbing on ocean tides:
Wedging reality wide.
Gliding freely through the star dashed sky,
Moonlight collides with sighing ocean tides,
Flying side by side with the glowing guide.
She ventures high, don't ask why, she will decide.
Everyone I know is crazy,
except those in the hospitals.
The insane haven't lost their bloody minds,
they've found it.
If you can't understand this,
perhaps you're considered 'sane,'
by the 'sane,' when really,
you're blinded by society's plague.
Open your mind to insanity !
You have much to learn.
The world around us is a lie.
If you can't comprehend that,
You are the real moon
That pulls my wave collectively.
Towards your beaming beauty,
I lay my restless soul.
Let me lose myself for you,
even if it's just for one,
beautiful, transcendent moment.
What does pain matter?
I just don't want to miss your light.
Call me crazy, call me blind.
I'd like to blame the moon
for all I've been feeling
for this freedom
this feminine freedom
bathed in white light
I'd like to blame the moon
for the brown in my eyes
the dirt on my feet
my mess of a hair
and a life
I'd blame her too, for my love of sunshine
rain and all that comes from nature
connection
to all beings
I'll blame the night for art
and thank her
for artists
and I'll thank myself for my liberation
my love for the God
the joy of nature
my own nature
my feet
the ground
my soul, at last
