Making Space

Fuse and fire fit to burn

Gunpowder lines your veins

Broken by the breath before

Safer hearts with severed chains



Loneliness or making space?

I can never seem to say



Scripted lines of blood unlearned

Given well before your name

Taught to sing and bring the storm

Now you listen for the rain



Loneliness or making space?

I can never seem to say

Loneliness or making space?

We both bear the weight of change



Final words become a curse

A call to live another’s pain

Our paths unwind and then reverse

Silent, Strong in each exhale



Loneliness or making space?

I can never seem to say

Loneliness or making space?

We both bear the weight of change
