Ballare
a building settling around me
my figure female framed crookedly
in the threshold
of the room
door scraping floorboards
with every opening
carving a rough history
of bedroom scenes
the plot hard to follow
the text obscured
in the fields of sheets
slowly gathering the stains
of seasons spent lying there
red and brown
like leaves fallen
the colors of an eternal cycle
fading with the
wash cycle
and the rinse cycle
again an unfamiliar smell
like my name misspelled
or misspoken
a cycle broken
the sound of them strong
My Heaven
I have this vision I keep inside me
I've told to nobody else
Baby I'm gonna share it with you
Cause I can't keep it all to myself
I could tell you I don't want you
But you know it's a lie
You see the truth in my eyes
You are my heaven
You are my secret dream come true
My Heaven
And I want it just like this every night
And I wanna feel like this the rest of my life
Just like the sunshine when the rain is over
I looked up you were there
I'm giving thanks to the one who made you
You've answered every one of my prayers
Only you look deep inside me
And see who I really am
Only you understand
You are my heaven
You are my secret dream come true
My Heaven
And I want it just like this every night
And I wanna feel like this the rest of my life
Never knew anybody out there
Could undo me like you do
You made my fantasy so very real
A world I never knew
