Quiet

Take the bread
From the children’s mouth
Talk about the better days
And how the times they’ve changed
—-
All our eyes color gray
You ask a lot of mother
To give up all her quiet days
—-
I know I’ve broken the flesh
And bone
I guess you could call this spirit home
give up
clouded skies
rain mixed
Winter haze
I’m not fading away
It’s only time for me to change
I can’t come here anymore
I
And
I
And
You
And
Truth
It’s time for me to change my habits
Small virtues
—-
have I seen
And felt the sun across
Your skin
I still feel you
I still see you
Nothing can always shine
Even you need a break
—-
clouded skies
rain mixed
Winter haze
They say there’s no harvest here
What happens to our youth
Body soft
Red tan
Lips drunk and lungs hot
You’re high
And my eyes colour gray
I can’t come here anymore
It’s just different seasons
It’s just different reasons
Even you need a break
They ask a lot …
But you
You can’t
Be
Anything
all the time
Keep our quiet days
