Change in the Seasons

(5/26/22)

We sat in perfect silence watching the clouds hide the sunrise
As the morning fog rolls through your cigarette smoke
Their hazy grays rend your beauty of its youth
Yet the fire in your eyes still burn me alive

Spring rains wash away everything we lost in the winter
You are the golden sunlight the storms left behind
That’ll blossom the flowers of fleeting summer passion
I know we’ll catch each other if we fall

Crushed quartz crystals in the cracks of a mirror
Reflecting our pasts into an uncertain future
I dreamt of you in a bedroom with unlocked doors
I don’t think I’ll ever dare to speak your name
