Winter Breaking

Winter breaking, am I awake? If I’m arriving now, am I too late?

To the rooftop for the view, only outlines of me and you

Drawing from the past, shall we meet at last?

Tell me if you want to what colors I should use

 

Ever I was reaching, narrowing my eye

But I am begging why believe again?

 

Shall I name it now? Familiar ache

I am afraid I hesitate

If this is a gift why should I resist?

Fateful consequence or a March deliberate?

 

Ever I was reaching, narrowing my eye

But I am begging why believe again?

 

This must be a dream, what is it you see

This must be a dream, what is it you see

Is it like before or could it be forever more?

 

The bow is taut and quivers with intent

How I hate to wait but still I shift

Ah, but when you sang, how I was slain

Buried in the sound, whatever risk, dismiss it now

 

Forever I’ll be reaching, narrowing my eye

Now I am begging, I believe again

I am leaning in I hear it now there, it is calling, screaming from your skin

I am leaning in I hear it now there, it is calling, screaming from your skin
