I breathe the mist
Floating about the stars I can caress With velvet hands I breathe the mist Floating within, without this pen This pen between my fingers Messiah I know you are there Within, without me Holding me Messiah I know you are there Catching, carrying This beautiful mess Escape the pain Within a room somewhere Escape the pain So deep inside the soul I have no key No map to find |

Amber liquid wetting winecups to the stem
Spilling drops to glisten on the earth like little gems That myself mistook so foolishly when I stopped to steal a drink Of the liquid amber melting in my eyes, in my hands, and on my lips Earthy blankets full of golden lint and thread I see the children play as I am on my way again To another place; I'm sorry to say that we Blurred the picket fence Still the children play, they wrap themselves in the middle To sip sunlight and drink innocence Hey today Beauty is my healer Hey today I'm gonna steal her |

In the middle of my mourning
Sits joy like ahappy child In the middle of this death I must cry with life for a while And death is great We are in his keep, laughing and whole When we feel deep in life He dares weep, deep in our soul And you are gone But you are perfect now And you like to dress You wear dresses that never fade And you are gone (my mother cried she said you?d gone away) But you are perfect now (and now a part of me must do the same) And you like to dress (but I know I must be thankful) You wear dresses that never fade You wear dresses that never fade |

How you'd laugh when I cried
Each time I saw the tide Take our love letters From the sand You made a vow That you Would always be true But somehow that vow Meant nothing to you Now my broken heart aches With every wave that breaks Over love letters in the sand All the days like today We pass the time away Writing love letters in the sand |
