Time Elapsing Blue

Forsaken understanding
Old time encased in paper and arriving slowly
Images of phasing long days

The lights of the town inviting
All senses favour undetermined outcomes only
Can a mother's hand hold on too tightly?

Dissolve the world around you
Dissolve the names of all around us
In a time elapsing blue

Find the lesson easier to prove
When you look inside to face the truth
Of the time collapsing you

Once upon a dream you tasted
All flavours unfamiliar to the tongue less spoken
Bringing out the load you were born to bear

Mistaken and distracted
Idols of gold and silver recognise you're lonely
Writing down your fated history

The will, it waits
Waiting you to direct you through
The one, the way
Never to be split in two
The will, it waits for you

Forsaken understanding
