Too Late

Stumbling in paradise,
I forget the sublime.

Finding what is straight,
I’m forgetting the way.

Remembering to dance,
As leaves float from the branch.

Singing without a voice,
As the wind takes me too.

Stumbling in chaos,
I remember my family.

I have found what is true,
In chaos I hear it.

In paradise too,
As vivid – No.

Dancing within air,
I fall.

Now I remember,
It is lovely – Truly.
