fall and crawl

4823

I’ve seen you fall and crawl
I’ve seen you run and hide
Waiting for hope to fall back
Into your soul
Turning your numb feet into wings

I’ve seen you weak and done
I’ve seen you in the cold
Waiting for the heat to burn back
Into your bones
Turning your frozen heart into flames

I’ve seen you in laughter and joy
Never knowing how long it’ll last
This time the deed is done
The demon dead and the devils gone

Couldn’t believe what I saw
Can’t trust my perforated brain

You saw me dying more than once
You saw me flying towards the sun
You heard me lying at every chance
And what did I do what did I do

Falling crawling running hiding
Hoping knowing accepting
Flying lying dying
Loving
