Shadow and Gaze

Shadow and Gaze

Oct 18, 2024

I looked at the vase
But it was full of tears
I searched through the dreams
But it was worse for wear

I climbed up the back
And swam down the middle
I found myself
In the f-hole of a fiddle

There he was waiting
To teach me to sing
Like the loveliest songbird
Held by a string

The key was still missing
As I planned my goodbyes
The radiant sun sets
And all my tries

I’ll see you tomorrow
In the shadow and gaze
For we have a lot of work
To get out of the maze

There he was waiting
To teach me to sing
Like the loveliest songbird
Held by a string
