Rush Our

Driving home, "Be there soon"

Looking up, dark clouds loom

Weatherman- so full of shit

We both know this storm will never quit

​

Flashing lights, weather delays

The high road beckons another way

Unable to turn, the wheel wont budge

Shadows feed this omnipotent grudge

​

Tendrils of consciousness loosen their grip

As my heartbeat slows to a mere drip, drip, drip

Ethereal raindrops splash onto my face

Waking me to this alien convergence of time and space

​

Through the front door

A storm is raging

The carpet's wet

and Our love fading

A phantom memory of our blissful daughter

No complaints as she treads the rising water

​

Forgive first before we drown

Holding breath until love is found

The beauty burns away the endless dark

Two sober hearts desperate for a single spark

​

Rummage through the coffers of your soul

Only to realize you've always had control

Show the gatekeer that shimmering key

Vulnerable are we to the whim of his empathy

​

Follow the light to higher ground

For once trust the promise of solace bound

Crawling to land remmeber this measurable pain

In all of us remnants of shadows remain

​

Though risk of a darkened tomorrow

This might you may forever barrow

A passanger with you, often I'm unseen

Wake up Adam, the light just turned green.
