song of a night owl

i'll light a candle for you

evermore by the window

awaiting the sounds long lost to me

i'll wash our love in the ocean

let it freely dissipate

a recurring crash onto the rocky shoreline

i'll cry forever

in my soul there's a gaping mess

i let the wind slip through my hands

and swiftly it will go

by and by

the sky was alight

and silly i was left dreaming

dazed

screaming
