splashes.

i'm falling,
catch me quick!
i twist and turn out of fingertips--

i'm falling,
no time to waste!
if you wait longer we'll all be late--

i'm falling,
oh so alone!
with a fish sharing thoughts, sharing bone--

i'm falling,
you don't dare care!
for thoughts have flown through my hair in thin air--

i'm falling,
you can see how free!
could i fall forever,


or will you catch me?

--------------------------------
this is to no one, for no one.

just me,
and my goldfish for inspiration.

Song 2

oh darling, it's gonna be alright,
spread out your arms, try might to flight.

oh darling, it's gonna be alright,
i hear your- see your- feel your plight.

oh darling darling, don't you see,
that making it better's not worse for me,

oh darling darling, don't you see,
for all your talking, listening's the key.

--------------------------------------------
they just pop right
into
my
head, stupid little choruses.

can't

i want to stand in the thunderstorms,
feel the rain trickle down my hair.
get all the water in the world,
my beat heart's banner unfurled,
stand bare shot skin in the air.

i want to stand in the thunderstorms,
let the lightning bake up my bones.
sing a little praise to life,
water- less salty than strife,
mouth moans, with you i'm not alone.

and i--
never had a love love love love love.
and i--
could never take a white-bright angel from above.
and i--
would'a bleed bleed bleed you dry.
and i--
pick petals from the flowers, leave the eye.

my first attempt at songwriting...
eh.

there's a rhythm in my head.... but it doesn't transfer to words.
