Hanging

Brouhaha
Refusing to feel it
Doesn’t make it go away
Maybe we should all
Just go back to landlines
Take a glimpse into
The what could be

Coruscated by the overhead
Light shining down in less draconian
Lifestyles or virtue of temperance
To be a master to the self

Lavender moments of wonder
Missing out to catch up again
Is time running away or
Can we catch it
In the garden
Hanging upside down
From a tree

Hanging On

You’re hanging onto things
That don’t matter to me
I’m hanging onto things
That don’t matter to you
We’re hanging onto things
That don’t matter to us
And neither one of us
Can see the truth

Every little piece
Creating problems for you
Every little piece
Creating problems for me
Even if I tell you what
My heart wants to see
It still creates a problem
For you and me

The letter kills
But the spirit gives life
The letter kills
But the spirit gives life
The letter kills
But the spirit gives life
Clinging to darkness
Desperate for light

Is it the love for my dead brother
That’s always getting in your way
Is it because of the things
You never want to hear me say
I never asked you to come here
But you’re choosing to stay
Please tell me there’s something better
Than always fighting this way
