Sorrow and Awe

Yawning perpetually at the world,
both in sorrow and in awe

Seeking lies to cover up and truths to under veil
Dreaming in a distance, in an eclipse and within the mile
Sighing under moons and dancing under the sun

Yawning perpetually at the world, 
both in sorrow and in awe

Climbing in the sea and scaling oceans wide
Crossing prairie skies with little more than clouds for gas
Lazing in an office requiring more from the outside

Yawning perpetually at the world, 
both in sorrow and in awe

Painting a hyperbolic picture both with intent and schism in mind
Requiring less from with in and leaning backwards through time
Rising with a wave and wind to push beyond

Yawning perpetually at the world, 
hoping one day awe will inspire more than sorrow.

  1. I love the line "Crossing prairie skies with little more than clouds for gas
    Lazing in an office requiring more from the outside"

    It paints exactly what my job is like some days when I sit at my desk and all I want to do is go outside and do SOMETHING.
