Skip One
Swallowing all the seas in search of solution. Breaking away a piece of my freedom to kindle that flame in my heart. And then I hide a bit of my suffering so I still have something for later.
Look at what I'm bringing. All the winters and they multiply one by one. While my heart, silently, like a prayer is burning all the forests down. You're putting a needle through my selective memory and shadows interchange.
See the innocence in my hair. You misplaced me and then I destroyed every trace of you. In my ever growing strength. But it's never that easy.
I filter the noise through my existence because I still miss you. Your voice and the things I've never told you. I arrange my proteins to decide if I'm coming back as a winner.
An echo of you is flowing through me. Be the summer that is flowing through me. Each of my breaths is colored by you. And then I skip one.
