salvaging pieces of peace

perpetuate hate
flowers fall from pedals
the dust shall never settle
on the deserts we create

shall the colors ever join again
in their dances of simpler days?
the answer is hushed by the fragmented freedom
with which they delude our brains

for the love of a summer will fall like the leaves
leaving branches of bare memories
but the smiles and laughter will linger forever
like scents on a colorful breeze

a single embrace
of confident comfort
shall one day unite us all

and we'll march on that day
to a sweet island bay
and frolic about in the sea

if my mind should drift from the world you know
dear, wave and smile and watch me go
for i'll send a postcard from the meadow above
from the land of perennial sun

i'll impart the wisdom handed down from the stars
and rid the world of its deep bleeding scars
and i'll bring thee some fruit upon my return
grown in the shadow of God's greenest fern.

drudging through days
in a cloud of cliches
we change from phase to phase
in a lifeless parade

and so it shall go, and so it shall go

and God's resigned sigh can be heard, don't you know

whose pages are bound with lies
perhaps love is found in the peace that you took
from the people with smiling eyes

what truth is carried in your cries?
for the music is lost in the hate that you glean
from the love inside 3:16

walking in the golden sunlight
your hair glows with your smile
oh, sunlight guide me, contented child
i give myself to the light tonight

im falling through your bright blues eyes
as your hand beckons me closer
wrap me gently, darling, in the blanket of freedom
and the whisper of your comforting sighs

id say id show you the world, but it's not this world that i need
i long to live in the world you love
and smile in your dreams.
