Flight or Flight

I’ve got visions of us
Growing old, growing stuck
To the frame of the bed where we have laid to rest
We’ll grow hollow in that room
As our bodies stay, our minds are drifting fumes
They float from our bodies, from our bed, from our brains, to their grave
I see you clear in flight
You are an all consuming light
I feel it all with fright
It is a never ending fight or flight
To lose, to love, to leave, to stay
It is us until the end
I am certain, it is plain
But I am a poet, I breathe for the tension, the release
And it’ll push us to the edge
Make us fear imbalance on the ledge
‘Cause we are manipulators and gifted providers of guilt
I see you clear in flight
You are an all consuming light
I feel it all with fright
It is a never ending fight or flight
To lose, to love, to leave, to stay

Only Life

It’s so much to take he says
Singing softly, out of key
Down by the sea
In the evening breeze
The clouds are hanging low tonight
I can feel them float and soak
His skin and mind
His skin and mine
They say
That’s alright, it’s only life
It floats away with the morning light
That’s alright, it’s only life
It floats away with time
Drinks and drugs and caffeine
Runs wild through his frame
To fill a void beneath his skin
It’s a hollow float
A temporary soothing
They say
That’s alright, it’s only life
It floats away with the morning light
That’s alright, it’s only life
It floats away with time
But I can’t feel his breathing
I can’t feel his heart beating
They say
That’s alright, it’s only life
It floats away with the morning light
That’s alright, it’s only life
Only life
It floats away with time
We all float away with time
