Eonian cycle

looking at this globe through a porthole
is watching orbit ring a bell
sliding doors and open windows
it's all about kinetics
as far as i can tell

the harder I push to get away
the faster gravity promotes increasing speed
and destination pulls me back, to when
your presence still knocks me off my feet

again



.

This slow course

I'll protect you against harm
build a wall around you
dam the waters, sound the alarm
call to arms
to defend and surround you

I won't break
I'll bend
to shield you from the storm
depend on me
no matter what it takes
I'll be strong

never after too-late
but always before
I'll stop this wave from colliding
barricade this wrecking door
seal more sandbags to the sliding floor

my love,
I fear the fact that I don't feel it anymore
