The Underneath - Mothlite

Woke from a dream

That left me

Open and sore

Until my mind looks down and sees the day before

So many times

Your light

Has passed me by

I knew it was around like the sun behind clouds

Every second I mistake

For another

Faces from another life are lost at sea

I see colours change

When I reach towards the opening

The underneath of love

Is crawling

Across the sand

Of beaches left alone in time with no footprints

Staring at the sky

It’s burning

Ice is melting

Words of disbelief are murmured through the crowd
