No More Sorrow

No more sorrow for me babe
I need to stay
And you need to stay
We both need to stay
Just right where we are
Grow together
And apart

You can come knocking on my door
Few years down the road
And for a moment
I might not recognize you

I expect time can make things awkward
It can make conversation topics
Rot away
We can expect to talk about
That distant past
And mention moments
That the other
Doesn’t remember

And maybe we can expect
To say the things
That were oh, so delicate to say

We can look back
And smile at the childishness
The naïve little feelings
I stored up inside
To only release to the winds
Once we lost track
Of the time

Once I lost track of time
And effort
Once we grew apart
To not feel the pain

To not feel sorrow
No more sorrow
No more sorrow for me babe

Sweet Dreams

Fear has lost the war
And our children bring home
Good news for sure

Countless nights we battled
Strived
The midday sun
Drove us wild

Racing past what darkness hides
We signaled with echoes
To the other side

As we danced
And we feasted before the great fire
The Wise One told us
What our ears desired

Once more we gained
One day of rest
Once more we sleep
To our hearts’ content

Hiding and Seeking

Dusk and Dawn
Are siblings at play
Hiding and seeking
Through night and day

Performing for an audience
Who never stand in awe

Only until they notice
That it’s almost day
Almost night
Almost time
To stop the war

And think back to the moments
When they used to be
Dusk and Dawn

Hiding and seeking
Hiding from themselves
Never seeking each other
Never at rest
With who they are
And who they were
