Meridian
The living soul in the scene, shimmers as you look fixedly
At a face with the marks from a fall, you catch her for a moment
And drop to the ground, with no time to think
Beaming out the sun from your eyes
Mesmerised
Mesmerised
Stuck with a force from either side, trying to crush the pillars of my gut
The tingling sensation in my lips, is a warning of how I might lose taste
Pulsing down my neck, keeps me up all night
And the pounding in my chest, is a heavenly beat
Beat, beat, beat, beat, beat, beat, beat, beat
Intertwined and emotionally buttoned up
Our hands are covered with sweat
Loyal but devoid of empathy, with no reward
I used to know you like the back of my hand
The softness in your smile
I remember like it was yesterday, but it's not
The pasture keeps track of your steps
If you stand long enough
You become the earth beneath your feet, at the end
One wishes to wake up at the start
The other dreams of an end
How I wish we could be at meridian, but we're not
