‘I don’t know what to think,’ she said ‘I feel too much to feel,’ she said And if you want to know the truth again Just have to wrap your arms around the wind ‘And trust in something higher than us,’ I said ‘There’s something missing inside of me,’ she said ‘There’s too much noise to hear me,’ she said Clearness is offered, but will never be found We are one with the sky, the water, the ground ‘How much do you need to be touched?’ I said ‘Can’t pretend this ghost again,’ she said ‘Can’t let in, or even begin,’ she said With her arms folded, eyes downcast The sun was drowning in the past ‘Things gold cannot buy your soul,’ I said ‘Just another day, a minute, an hour,’ she said ‘Just hold me again like a little flower,’ she said And once more with arms around each other Trying, and praying not to smother ‘Just me and you this complete,’ I said |

I don’t know what to think,’ she said ‘I feel too much to feel,’ she said And if you want to know the truth again Just have to wrap your arms around the wind ‘And trust in something higher than us,’ I said ===================== Clearness is offered, but will never be found We are one with the sky, the water, the ground ‘How much do you need to be touched?’ I said ‘Can’t pretend this ghost again,’ she said ‘Can’t let in, or even begin,’ she said With her arms folded, eyes downcast The sun was drowning in the past ‘Things gold cannot buy your soul,’ I said ========================== And once more with arms around each other Trying, and praying not to smother ‘Just me and you this complete,’ I said ========================== my moth words cant do the justice that your own words can do this one ... so I will let your poetry speak for me (hard to talk when Im sighing anyway) "Just have to wrap your arms around the wind ‘And trust in something higher than us,’ I said" "Clearness is offered, but will never be found We are one with the sky, the water, the ground" "Can’t pretend this ghost again,’ she said ‘Can’t let in, or even begin,’ she said" "The sun was drowning in the past ‘Things gold cannot buy your soul,’ I said" always loved this one... and the title my PK collection grows oh you speak to me in riddles |
