Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

The words trickled across the moonlit stairs like the whisper of a quiet curtain, like the strokes of a god who had forgotten how to do anything but drift along and hope

It came in through the window at night and I felt such a longing were you there, were you there?

Drifting across the cement, at the place where my mind used to meet the stars

Every time I forget about forgetting the circle winds and the wishing well drips and the night is open like the endless sea

In the sea of the universe there were forgotten memories of cruising before the sun and I was left alone, alone wondering where to begin and where to continue

Everyone is caught in an endless trap of trying to prove themselves and none of us, none of us, none of us chose to be here

We were all thrust into this world without a guide and without instructions and we all just want to bathe in the cool water forever and ever

We were all put here without choice and without any explanation of what is going on and we're all expected to be all right

Will you be alright, in the whispering wind?

Or did I break you, as I break everything that is a part of myself

Will there ever be a way to travel through time

Or will we always be stuck

Wishing we could put the light back in the lamps

And the glow back in the stars

Forget all the times

I drifted into the current

And swam to Pluto

Like it was the next door neighbor's swimming pool

I no longer understand or believe any of the considerations of the other times

Can I just drift into the sky

And never ever again

Not have the ability to sigh

I'm in the silver slipstream

Of the current of life

And I'm living with the spirits

Of twin hope and desire

There was never anything that could stop the sea

Except the wall that was just out of reach

The silent sound

Of the deep sea

Surrounds the room with the movie theater

Like a couch and a pillow and a dream

I dreamed of the seven times

And the other signs

Seasons and rhythms and rhymes and lights

Let us go to the woods

Let us go to the stream

Victory is within the reach of design

There were seven stairways to the ground floor of Rome

There were seven skylights in the southern ice home

The South Pole hides the secrets of enchantment

And you took me away on a curtain of entrancement

And I have never gotten back
