Still, It All Seems Endless

I scream from the top of the tallest mountain

I scream to the trees on the hazy ground below

But they only hear a whisper

That’s okay, they’ll be different tomorrow

That’s okay, they’ve seen ten of my lifetimes

With any luck they might see ten more

I scream from the dark forest up to the tallest mountain

It can’t hear me at all

That’s okay, it’s seen everything and nothing

That’s okay, it wouldn’t change for me even if it could

The birds hear my scream and I stand below and watch them fly

With any luck I might see them again

With any luck they might never see me

How many more times might I watch the birds fly into the clouds?

Maybe ten, maybe a thousand

Maybe never again

Still it all seems endless 

And my screams turn to whispers

Windchimes

I whisper out the window to the birds,

Perched in their burning autumn tree

As their song shuffles through the leaves

the wind blows and whitewashes my image of you

Everytime you come into focus,

A gust blurs my photograph

The edges soften

Whites steal its saturation

Push and pull

A hum

A whisper

The windchimes ringing out the window

Sing their song of melancholy

But still remember not to forget their optimism

They still remember not to forget their optimism
