Enfpleasantly

Coming to the part that shakes the sky
Makes the moon hide his face and the stars shy
Pulled apart coming back to collide
Sometimes it makes us feel alive

Touched by your eyes
My friend you are in good company
Seeing through the lies
The guarded wall behind the smile
Pulling you free is a scary thing
Do you trust the hands you're in?

Calm is the storm when we speak
And here with warmth all around me
But where ...

Laughter tore through the cage encircling my heart
He stepped his way in
In you remain
The boy knew nothing of the fear I held
The man emerges
Cradled my rage
His soul made for few
Into me he settled and grew
Every inch of skin
And every facet of being
Taken in
We are the song the cherub sings
We are the feathers on birds wings
We are the water life drinks
And the riches of kings
We are
We are

Caramel apples
Honey sweet
Sticky kisses and the sound of the rain
The sun shines on me anyway
And the smile across my face glows back with intensity
This girl, this little one lives fearlessly
Just across the road is the land I've never been
It's calling my name and pulling me in
Just a step,
Just one step and we're on our way
Let go sweet one, fly away.

"Bound and Tied"

Knots in ties, loosely
Bound limb to limb
Grasping at straws foolishly
Toward the reflection


Leaves cradled breeze to breeze
Many a wish escaping
And lost in the relentless freeze


Sound is safe in this house
Bricks and walls refusing to fall
I can make you some dinner my Dear
And rip away my blouse

Take my heart by my mind
Yours I'll be, bound and tied ...

"Head Full Of Doubt / Road Full Of Promise" by The Avett Brothers


There's a darkness upon me that's flooded in light
In the fine print they tell me what's wrong and what's right
And it comes in black and it comes in white
And I'm frightened by those who don't see it


When nothing is owed or deserved or expected
And your life doesn't change by the man that's elected
If you're loved by someone, you're never rejected ...
