Limb

Out on a limb while the tree was shaken
Fruit falling far enough from this haven
Senescent cells prepare to lie latent
And I wait in winter to Awaken

This morning after coffee
My heart seized up
Nearly fainted
I didn’t think I missed you

Last night sleep would not come
Mind in circles
Running through the thoughts
Of how we said goodbye

Out on a limb while the tree was shaken
Fruit falling far enough from this haven
Senescent cells prepare to lie latent
And I wait in winter to Awaken

Travеling abroad
Cities new and old
Painting all the mеmories
To keep from growing old

Claiming now I’ve moved on
But waking cold and alone
Silence now where laughter rang

Out on a limb while the tree was shaken
Fruit falling far enough from this haven
Senescent cells prepare to lie latent
And I wait in winter to Awaken
