Paintings

Someday the earth won't face you
Long gone and far away
Some day the earth won't grace you
And I'll be waiting for the moon
To place me deep inside her
Far away from empty space

Oh how I long to be free
Oh how I long to escape this misery

Storm clouds will swell and shutter
Soaking the floor with all your feelings
The forecasts will see you blue

And one day you shall see me
As so much more than all your paintings

The dye is fading, peeling
Searing your soul with all your failings
The canvas turns bedraggled

And I will never tire
To see you writhe and suffer

But one day I'll retire
And sail away for good
