Powerlessplay

We rose from ashes forgotten by the fire

We fell from stars that belong in the sky

Once we were real

Swimming in the river every day until the end of summer

Now just memories that burn as deep as they fade

Into the last glimpse of sunset

Beneath Lower Skies

Touch the fading summer
Under burning skylight wonder
Where shadows once cast

Taste the falling rain bed
Beyond our broken homestead
Forgotten by the past

Every day we wander alone in this smaller wilderness

Growing older beneath these lower skies
