The stillness of a city with nothing
The uncertainty of a hand holding nothing
But with just myself
And these two eyes, I hold the remains of a dream
The awkwardness of a room with no sound
My days without you are so vapid
Yet once again
I rise up with just myself
To this reality that spreads out before me
Though we may be struck by heavy rain
Words you hold onto alone at night
Compassion and sadness are
In short, empathy
Might be where our souls exist
See
Already awake
Kicked the door open and
Ran through the morning sunset skies
Right now, the sound of you out of breath
The city streets at dawn veiled in dew
Moving forward every day, in rumpled fashion
Crossed an asphalt ocean
You’ll see freedom lying way beyond
Over there, the world shouts out
Incessantly
Scenery instilled in us from our birthplace
Negate a destiny
Linked to irises and skin and
Just dreams of a future where all is accepted
Dreams
Though at times we may face strong winds
The tears you spilled all alone
Compassion and sadness are surely
In short, empathy and
Might be where our souls exist
See
Already awake
Kicked the door open and
Ran through the morning sunset skies
Right now, the sound of you out of breath
The city streets at dawn veiled in dew
Moving forward every day, in rumpled fashion
Crossed an asphalt ocean
You’ll see freedom lying just beyond
Over there, the world shouts out
Your name
Incessantly
The stillness of a city with nothing
The uncertainty of a hand holding nothing
But with just myself
And these two eyes, I hold the remains of a dream
