7 More Seconds

A long bout of nostalgia brought this one on...


7 More Seconds

Seven more seconds, maybe I'll know
the cause of these memories
creeping up on me
in the silence between us

Living life seven seconds at a time
in the permeating darkness
dreaming alone
with you right beside me

Seven seconds, still more than you know
after moons descend and stars fall
when dawn breaks
and sunlight shines through me

Evolution of Mother Nature

A completed attempt after so many whiles of trying... came with unbeknownst help from a friend.


Evolution of Mother Nature

Rain and sun and leaves and snow
Little changes lost in time

Evolution of Mother Nature
Breeze across my naked face
Never hiding thoughts inside

Moonlight calling
Asking me to come and play
Dancing with the fireflies

Sunrise o'er the horizon
Beckons me to open roads
Riding fast and soaring free

Just a girl trying out her wings
Ever chasing sands of time
