It hangs like doom
Just above our heads
Our hearts
Threatening to come down
Crashing
It hangs like a dream
Tantalizing, terrifying
Just out of reach
There for me to grasp
And make my own
It hangs like uncertainty
Unclear and foggy
Threatening to engulf you
In a maddening maze
It spreads like lead
Through our hearts
Making them heavy
And our thread
Thinner, fainter
It spreads like fire
Through my being
Burning with pain
And passion
Both waiting
For direction
It spreads like dread
Through your insides
Making you ache and yearn
Wishing for time
To crystallize
Right here
It feels like
A thousand emotions
A thousand emotions
And no words
Misty eyes
And one syllable
Because I had wings
To take flight
To reach the stars
To claim the sky
And you
You could chase a tornado
You could claim the earth
You got left behind
"Bright lights, big city
She dreams of love
Bright lights, big city
He lives to run"
