The Wild

August finds you

Softly wanting

It's been too long since I've called your name

Searching backwards

Feeling loud now

Two statues clean bearing our

Names

Winter's passed now

Stillness comes through

Solitude hangs heavy by my

Side

Our lives

Leave parallel tracks upon the earth

The wild

Giving us joy upon the heath

Stowing close what we've made

Drowning out what we

Can't escape

Collecting all that we've done

Burning up what we

Can't outrun
