Furrow

Far from the spark
And the empty of dark
And the land below

I found you in a curl
A ball unfurled
Unfurling long and slow

Tears from your eyes
And tears not yet cried
And tears that taught you

To never fight
What has such might
To right what was wrought too

Yet now we know what is good and bad
And know what to keep away
Do you remember what you said
That night as we lay

You said "Never will I think such thoughts again
And I shall never be wondering about those things again

For its sinful and rife with evil to believe in that now
Wandering through streets that furrow my brow"

Being like you are
Understanding was hard
And now, everyone's hurt

Glimmering like stars
Mercury, Jupiter, and mars
I thought of it first

Vacant stares
Who goes there
I don't care
I don't care

Hide from those
Who chose
To leave you there
There, there

Yet now we know where the river flows
And where it parts its tides
Do you remember where the water goes
For solace, to hide
It goes into the darkness of the night

Wondering what gives them the right
To till it's ground and plow and plow and plow
Wandering through streets that furrow my brow
