Waves

Waves of lost hope came into my head They fill my days with sorrow And to blow on embers left inside of me To burn me up in tomorrow The sunlight drips from the trees and forms in pools I'm wading through them, oblivious and warm Comfort then will come to no one And stones will speak and they seek to misinform Unwinged and flightless and difficult to see You collect me Replacing markers so that I can't win They don't know of my solitary days For the host of upturned feasting summer leaves And spirit light beams for later stowaways Ground will give, the heart will suffer And the traces of mourning will lead us to the end Where the dying landscape meets the water And the waves of you roll over me again Unwinged and flightless and difficult to see You collect me And now I see the end is near It's true, the coast was never clear And I don't believe in anything except Dreams still come, but now they're slow And in them, I am yet to go Anywhere I haven't already been An empty space where all is wrong And maps to where I don't belong And another dark path that ends, but never gives Innocence death, was I the one? To see the young and boiling sun To the other side And the wonders didn't end
