Sandbags

The tension I hold
The feeling of getting old
Sandbags for shoes to stay grounded
I saw your face in a dream
And I know it looked different
But not what it means

Loneliness can find me laying next to you
And I'm growing but my pillow begs me not to
So I'll cry 'til my bedding is a mess of blue
Blue

A child enjoys
The sunshine
The sunshine
The sunshine
The sunshine
The sunshine

She dances around her feet
Fire ants have made their home

Toes turn to mud
Sandbags are heavy
But water seeps in and I'm drowning
Drop to the bottom
Am I sunken or grounded?

I close my eyes
Imagine my own disguise
Decades have passed and I've lived with regrets
I'll see my face in a dream and I'll know I look different
And love what it means

Loneliness can find me laying next to you
And I'm growing but my pillow begs me not to
So I'll cry 'til my bedding is a mess of blue
Blue
