Through an Open Window

a tangle in the wire

paths they may get crossed

grace blows through the lilacs a moment then is lost

shafts of molten moonlight drip paraffin romance

under shadows of the branches

love’s a random dance

through an open window

through an open door

you can feel the wind blow

from the other shore

jump off into the sunset

leave the world behind

so fragile on this journey there are those who tire of trying

the bridge sways o’er the river

these souls stand in defeat

like a penny for all their wishes in a ring they wed the deep

through an open window…

the body is a candle and the wind can blow so strong

eyes can shut and tumble

down where shiver is so long (so long)

and it will not leave you standing

it runs a certain course

better touch the wonder while you can

it runs back to the source

though an open window…
