Earthbound

Draw me out of this muffling cloud
Place my feet on solid, if rocky, ground
Remind me that peace makes a sound
Like the hush of bedsheets drifting down
Like dried autumn leaves falling earthbound
To this playground of angels and hellhounds
Like your voice in the morning
The only one I'd recognize in this crowd
Saying in so many other words that I'm your darling
You mean to say you love me
And it comes out as: I'm glad you're around

I wrote this yesterday so it’s still fresh in my mind, but I think it might be one of my favorite pieces I’ve done.
