Carried Home

Her eyes are full of storm
It’s a constant distraction she’s working on
She’s a flower in need of rain
Shame though the water will choke her
She’s a flower of rain, that’s all
His eyes are wide in fear
His room’s alive with angels that wrestle with what brought him here
He’s a river with nowhere to flow alone
Soon the current will take him
Soon the water will rise
And soon it carries them home
Always circles around itself
Blooming, returning to itself
Back and forth, it never ends
When anything is everything again
We’re carried home, we’re carried to the sea
Do I need a reason to crash into the sea?
Do I really need to let the tide carry me into the sun?
Down into space is a beautiful dream
Weightless, set apart, drifting past gravity
And the soon the water will rise
We’re carried home
And soon it carries them home
We’re carried to the sea
We’re carried home in stormy eyes
With strangers at our sides by the tide
