Tunneling To You

through the bushes

as they sway with the wind

i see your every move

from such distance

racing pulse

just because you're alive

 

i've written poems and stories

painted brilliant works

composed epic symphonies

all with the same subject

a singular thread ties

everything i do

but you'll never understand

because you'll never know

 

when you come near

i'll hold my breath

play dead like a dog

then fight the regret

from burying me

 

(battling the stronghold...)

(battling the grip...)
