Endogenous

Woven (Puzzle and Leaves)

A/N: These two poems use six songs from the band The Paper Kites. They are: Bloom, St. Clarity, Tenenbaum, Young, Featherstone, and A Maker Of My Time. YouTube them. They're soft and sweet and that's just me. (Oh hey, I rhymed. Kind of. Would ya look at that...)

Puzzle:

Wake, the sound

Of your fleeting heart

Wake, your eyes are open

We walk in the dark

Taste, the feeling, of a fever soul

Breaking you in

Fill my lungs with sweetness

Only your glow

I know that you're

A timid Love, beneath the skin

Why do you live,

Like your love,

Wasn't meant for mine?

Gone to a different life

Down the line

Hate and lost

But love we've found.

To the coastline

Call them radiant

Call them mother's eyes

Homes for me to find

A cloudy wake, a young mistake

Lost, in a tall hedge maze

To a morning

Where the fields are painted gold

The trees are filled with memories

Of the feelings never told

I'm clothed in sleep

I can not see

It's a golden dream of mine

I rise with my morning eyes

But this space don't take my mind...

You carry

A sense of weariness, I see.

You're a bitter kind

Sour is your mind

For what you sow

Well, it's how I see you

When I see you from below

When you go,

What you leave,

It's a work of art

So I'll go but know,

I'll see you, down the line.

And we'll hate what we've lost,

But we'll love what we find

Rattled windows on the old green line

Made it... to the coastline

Leaves:

Feeble, with a broken plan

Make my bed on the great unsaid

Under neon lights

Where I wake

Walk in the dark

Trying so hard

Keep on losing

Head in a cloud

Your beguilling states, in endless heights

Shaking my fingers

Don't go out

Using my feet, to show you the movements

War of words

Only speak words of caution

Maybe they'll grow to be as we are?

But we can't look down,

To see what we were

We were like them before we were older

We need time to grow
