I rest quiet in your mind
leaving all you ever knew
I rest quiet in your mind.
Life’s rebirth smelling fresh
as tears thunder down
I rest quiet in your mind
kiss goodbye on the cheek
not permanent but long enough
leaving everlasting impressions.
I rest quiet in your mind
change rushes and leaves
creating winds of time
altering one & their past
while solidifying the future
I rest quiet in your mind
Goodbye comes back
as does home
with tongue on fire
mind in circles
anxious tugging heels
I rest quiet in your mind
Hello’s exchanged with sullen looks
as hands won’t meet & cheeks won’t touch
for in you’s longing for goodbye to see
hearts fell sleepy as Annabel Lee
I long for that which cannot be
My door’s creaked open, but yours for me?
Do I rest quiet in your mind?
