An Ode to Darkness
If it weren’t for you,
I wouldn’t know the phases of the moon
Behind the fog she fades to blue
And I don’t feel so alone.
If it weren’t for you,
Would heat lightning somehow show through?
Perhaps we would call the moon a cloud too.
Would we know of the glitter
sprinkled along the coast of malibu?
If it weren’t for you,
how would fireflies communicate?
If you weren’t here,
would they have a different name
or would they all go away?
If I didn’t know you
what would become of
the space in my mind
Where i sit on the roof
Looking up at the moon
Dreaming Of You Tonight
Where would hope be?
If not called to my side.
Would stardust exist
if everything was just right?
If it weren’t for you,
I wouldn’t know the phases of the moon.
I reach my hand out to her
or maybe to you
through the fog
she shines bright blue
And together we feel alone.
