Some Hope, Some Harm, And Another False Alarm

Gustav: You Seem To Glow Warmly Even On The Grayest Of Days

Today I see life through a lavender colored lens

Surrounded by quiet friends blowing in the wind

The ground and I are one with you,

I won't float away this time.

                Your melody is my waking lullaby,

                Keeping me alive, breath by breath,

                Singing so soft, you brought me back down

                I can't find anything like that sound.

                A soul warming rasp.

                                Your closeness brings me wondrous pain,

                                Pieces of my heart fall together as one

                                So this is what living feels like.

                                Light my eyes with delight.

                                                I've never seen something so broken

                                                So worn and torn by the world and still

                                                You fill my darkest caverns

                                                With your lavender illumination

                                                

                                                Can this dream, not be a dream.
