Nothing to do
but sit in the thoughts
the dark cloud of sadness
my own actions brought

nothing is over
it just never was
it shouldn't have mattered
nothing was lost

but for some stupid reason
it feels so raw
an ache and a heartbreak
summer to fall

cold and a chill
too many thoughts
I beg for some rest
from the turn and the toss

earth, I do plead
open your arms
and swallow me whole
use me for seed

bury me down
in the dark and cool depths
and crush me with life
a green, and lush breath

make something living
from the heartache I feel
use me for something
that's solid an real

Or, if you leave me
the way that I am
just shelter me over
when I'm too sad to stand

cover my silence
and shadow my shame
and bring me to newness
with your wind and your rain
