Maddieness


Pulling tears into the real

At the mention of a name

Feeling mostly out of time

Two lovers rehab game


Hold this world as memory

Some day one day to be healed

Futures here no guarantees

Hearts pushed across the field


In windows always passing

On a train around the sun

We can watch without a whisper

Or jump the tracks to run


Maddiness afflicts us

Calling out another home 

Walking well away the pond

Beyond our time to roam


Hold a second longer

Best to think it through

Seeking brighter angels

As each is made of two


Some are lost like flowers

Ever blasted to the wind

Maddiness is held to us

Til' time and gods resind
