Can You

Can you feel
Time grasping
At you
Slipping away into
I don’t know where
Is there enough
Do you ask yourself
Where it’s all going
Sometimes

Sometimes I do
I think about you
The things I really want to do
Maybe tomorrow
I say before
It all fades away

Am I coming or going
Loving life without knowing
If the moment is now
Waiting too long
Could mean it’s
Slipping somehow
Yet out of the blue
The blurry images
Looking through
My tears
Fighting through
The years
I see you

Sometimes I do
I think about you
The things I really want to do
Maybe tomorrow
I say before
It all fades away

Do you see me
Looking back at you
In just enough time
Before I ask
What time cannot
Tell us
We tell ourselves
Dusting off
All the shelves
Knowing now time is you
Knowing now time is me
The only time
That we have
Is the time that we’ll be
Together
Do I live in your heart
Like you’re living in mine
I don’t want to confuse
Or waste
Any more time

Can you feel
Time grasping
At you
Slipping away into
Us
What could be us
If we just make a move

Sometimes I do
I think about you
The things I really want to do
Maybe tomorrow
I say before
It all fades away

Sometimes

Sometimes it’s over
Before you start
Even after we hope
And believe it a victory
To go upstairs
Passages
Unpacking to
Create a gift
Never given

Although something happens
It’s still not there

Unlocking doors
Directing the gaze
Looking in all directions

Sometimes it’s just to find the balance
Sometimes it’s for affection

Feelings of shyness
Nevertheless trying
Offer the heart
Engine is starting
The gears are all moving
Towards something
And then that
Place

Hard to swallow
Dream of something
Coming soon

The nests are knocked out
Trees catch fire
Power lines cut
Yet your love will still bloom
The grass will still grow
Earth will always appear
Blue and green down below

Intention and destiny
Will prove that the rest
May fall like a cat
Graciously
