One thousand batting eye lids
On the summer frost
Who knows the rain
Until it comes to lick you whole?
Who knows the sun
Until it burns from the inside
Everlasting
Like a first love secret whisper?
I wish I had all the dreams I have forgotten
They would keep me awake
Through the slumber of existence
If I try hard
I can be eleven once again
I can take myself back
And remember you
In between the Gates of Eden
Before all knowledge
Before who I was to become
If I take myself back
I'm just about to hold your hand
As you hold your heart away from me
Through your eyes
The promise of a dream
Becoming our reality
I'm not big enough
To feel
What I felt then
Perhaps love is lost
Only to be regained
Not in memory
But in the blink of an eye
