Aurora
A wish gone wrong
Now turned into a tattoo
I like the way you draw (I like to draw
A portrait of the moon (these portraits of you
My wistful score My metaphors
My clumsy dance My mournful roar
Is all I can give, To the small light that is
Our shared star

The less I know the better it sounds
the blessings being chanted Making their rounds
The guessing game is wearing me down
A yes invoked could save me now
The blessings being chanted, rising on the air
Seeds being planted here and there
They go go go to home home home
I follow
The less I know, the more I care
The more your aurora is everywhere
The best I can hope is to try not to stare
At the bending of the light we tried to share
My fingers couldn’t grasp, my rhythm couldn’t keep
The ever changing silence, wide and deep
A roar of paranoia, a glorious retreat
My only option

The less I know, the bigger question asked
Which words to choose? Emotional math.
Which way gets me through the winding path
That leads from you, which future to enact?
The westward glow, tomorrow on the run
I cast my shadow in the shape of a one
Upon your aurora, your story I adore
The longest shade from the lowest sun.
The less I know the more beautiful it sounds
The holy drifting chorus making a round
It’s so fortunate, intne and into it
This long now
The less I know / my best guess gone
I confess I can see what I once saw wrong
A torn aurora born upon the shore of (born from the storm of)
my longing

To know less now, less somehow
To breathe the same air that I used to, wow
I can’t remember the words to the vow
That held me there in the longest now
The longest now…. Aurora I saw you
We long for the now, belong in the now,
This song is the now, no wrong in the now

That held me there in the longest now - auroooooora auroooooora I saw as you
