Hush

You’re spinning on yourself

Tell me what’s the fuss

You’re living in the riot

What’s the sugar to your rush?

The person that you want to be

was the one you left behind?

like the memory of a photograph

is all that’s left behind?

Hush now

You’re disposing of your word

I’m savvy to the sound

The person you become

feet that never touch the ground

Regardless of the circumstance

always take the time to glance.

If I could show you in

If I could only still your wind.

*

You can lay your head back down

to the bitter and the sweet

Let the silence cool

and keep you from the heat

In the moment you are still

and your head is left to rest

Amber reflects in your eyes

of the sky and the sunset.

Hush now…
