You Hide, I Seek

As i dream this dream so blue,
Woodlands search for the scent of you,
As there legs get tired and there heads grow wired,
Not a height in forest can see through, 

In the plastered smear of a dark night,
My iris bleeds the unfair fight,
Although a sense gets bullied, pulling round on its pulley, 
With our touch we can pull through this dead light.

Theres racing violence in these rooms,
Carry me through each exit wound,
I will bleed for you lover, use my soul as you cover,
And my eyes so you'll find where our life leads,

Breaking bodies and boundaries to find you,
I climbed each wall for that afternoon,
When i looked into your eyes and i finally felt wise,
Because i saw you, completely.
