as days turn into seasons now
we stop and see the air
in the spots it glows pink or turns straight to gold
slowly spinning us down to leaning on rails.
fans sway the rooms
we circle by hour
to sunsets and sparkling heads
our ankles cross knowingly
in comfort quite near
and the echoes of hallways rise up
as pens etch along paper
with the sounds of old faces
filling the cartridge with the dark ink of pasts.
the nights fall more slowly
now that clocks turn them back
and the darkness lays soft
pushing those that linger inside
to bright glass of something serenly painted and calm
with aged fires burning down to ashed logs.
heat sinks back into ground
met by newness and hope
while the static of lasts
sparks late in the sky
to remind of true loves and
those heart beats that skipped
under waters real blue and stars blinking in awe.
with that warming well lapsed
these nights start them new
and spirits meet quick on corners
lacing silk through our fingers.
those soft pinks and dust purples
that fill spaces with wonder
amaze my eyes as they watch
everything thats unseen.
and though the days havent shifted yet
theyre getting there strong
and the gleaming of something so great it must only be felt and held close
tugs at strings behind eyelids
to shine light on grey skies
and show brilliant sparks
flying off in the distance
so that when our gaze locks
and turns kind at the edge
we're sure of a purpose
and safe in our skin
