Antiochromia
One year ago today
Watched you walk from view
Yellow bird flew away
On wings of jet blue
Been a ghost of a good thing
Ever since that time has passed
What light can this night bring
When dawn's healing comes at last
Now my showers are scalding
And my coffee is cold
Mending and maulding
Unfairness untold
Trying to be
What I wish I could see
Like more hair where I'm balding
Like a hand I could hold
Antiochromia
Becoming me
Treating insomnia
In a way that's healthy
No more poisons or lies
To run away from
No self that's despised
Too smart to be dumb
Lessons in time
From trials and terrors
Learn what you need
From choosing in error
The road, it is long
But my feet, they are strong
And there is a song
And I am the bearer
