Seeds

The moon was a sliver in the middle of the night
And we gave up dithering and went on our way
And we sowed seeds, wherever we went
Fallen leaves, and everything we meant
It was a frosting of sweetheart
The water and the asphalt
As we grew sweet on the rest of the world
And we sowed seeds, wherever we went
Fallen leaves, and everything we meant
We sowed seeds, wherever we went
We married gutsy, and the cousins with come
But the bloodline boast the opposite and there was frost on the pond
As we stopped in the dark, right up to the hill
A slight fear of backlash of bruising and guilt
Their smiles effaced with encouragement to lend
While the weakly why us sirens sounding again like an alarm
We sowed seeds
Fallen leaves
On the ground of the town that devoured us
We sowed seeds
For the armless and the dedicated darlings with too much love
And too much time used with you
