It never stops

3 part album type piece, attempting to assimilate a common theme.

Lost

I lost my baby girl.
I was moving with the clock.
My arms don't make me move
but they hold and lock.
She holds her breath when she can.

I'm moving slower without stock.
The ups and downs and the knots
come together.
We called it a plot
in a planted pot with a plan I thought I'd lost.

She thought me whimsical once.
I pointed out what I'm not
and what I'd lost.
Now I'm lost in these ideas
flying and floating at speeds that seem
to divide me.
Me:
who is always lost in between.
---------------------------------------------------------
Start again

Can you wait for me to get home
before you start up again?
I can't wait for you to grow
out of your skin and climb back in.
You know
it's never stayed the same
and that's never going to change.
You'll never know.

I found you out inside of your drawings
of misplaced belongings.
I kept you always the same.
I let you out three miles from town
to see if you'd get back in.
Would you try me on again?

I gave you your coat
and smiled at least.
'Just hoped it'd make you think.

You gave me my hope
when you took what was left
and actually tried again.

I'm not your desire
but a friend
that's keeping you safe from the trends of the fire.
I've started this all since the end.

Echoed eternities

I noticed the epiphany
draped on your shoulders
in the shape of a falling curtain.

You're thoughts can misplace you
but you're hands can arrange you
I swear we have the time that we need.

I know that its falling,
you're a star not a comet.
We're all dying for something
and impacting on realities.

I played you a song
and sang with a chorus
and wrote in eternities.

My hands have undressed you.
I think I've misplaced them.
How could I be so stupid
to think I could have placed you at all?

I forwarded echo's
of recorded eternities,
revolving nothings
spinning for something
looking like you and me.

So dance with me somewhere
wherever we meet.

I really liked what I felt after listening to the last 3rd - Echoed Eternities.

Thanks Chris, I liked that one best too. It was chronologically written as is, and was more of a freestyle on paper, the third one came into focus. I should try this again.
