I wish I could have had more time
To talk to you alone
I wish we could have lept
Into the portal down below
I would have had you swept
Up from the rocky floor
And in the static air
With flowers in your hair
I think we could've walked
Like thunder on cement
I think we should've kept
Little distance at our best
The closer I find myself
Drifting towards your space
The more I realize
I'm centered by your grace
You sing the song of silence
And balance with your care
Try to sew the stitches
Of attachment with your glare
Then to rend the madness
Of insanity is pressing
Me into hoping there's
A chance around
The next revolution
Where I won't miss my shot
But if you held me
High above your passion
For mistake
And if I kept you from distraction
Tucked under my wing
Maybe we'd see the earth can breathe
Its best
And help us be free of our regrets
And losses that have weighed us down
To never let up from the ground
I'd place upon your celestial head
A crown of sentience and breath
