Taylor Brinsfield Poet Lyric

Willow

I wake up in the morning dew
and lather in the light
sweeter than a honey dew
I rise up from the night

take me to my aging tree
my warrior of life
ask him what it means to me
to wake up by your side

I found it in my garden stones
that's where I left my shoes
strong enough to crack them bones
but can never be abused

ponder on the riddle tomes
change them and confuse
I seek out the metronome
so I never get confused

when the rose will shed its thorns
to be naked to the truth
a different kind of love is born
what does that mean to you?

Taylor Brinsfield September 10, 2015 at 2:05 AM Verse 4 is speaking of our struggles to understand this life and also how people tend to change and confuse what is written. Morals and philosophies, right, wrong. The seeking of the metronome is speaking of my solace in music. My philosophy, essentially.
