Pieces
The spirit is separate from the body..
My life and I are in pieces, at odds with myself again
My feet are planted in the meadow but God only knows where my soul roams
Isn't it here where Dragonflies are water gods sparkling in the afternoon sun
My message bearer perched atop the goldenrod spelling the end of September
This glittering earth will soon turn grey
I use my hands to hide my eyes from the light
One step, two steps the last of us butterflies dancing flight
I always run away
