Come Home



Hardly containable
Pain disappears-
Are these years interchangeable?
Soon you'll be here

Are you near?
I still feel you
Your message is clear.
Over distances
Memory-shifting the sphere.

Feel it lifting the light
Past the shadow outside...
When the darkness decides
There is no need to hide.

I'm aware of this feeling,
I have been here before.
Puzzle pieces keep changing,
It means so much more.

There's this something
Inside me,
It's hard to explain...
Tangled words into memories
that make me insane.

All along, I've been dreaming.
In my dreams...Sylver, Blu...
It was all in my hands
Now it's all coming true.

So in higher harmonics
& resonant tones...
Feel the densities deepen,
As my babies come home.
