Lilypad

You did your best Someone should see To coalesce Floating to let A harmony You should protect Trying to best Your last decree Of loneliness It's all a test The closing sea Flows to the west I can see moonlit spies glimmering on the lake hidden by a glove Dragonflies say goodbye as their wings flutter up to create a buzz Don't know why in the shine, do they sing, do the lights, still they bounce off us I want to leap but I'm scared of what's below The storms we host It's a welcome overstayed Now I'm running from the ghosts Along the coasts All the land is razed and frayed Still, the water's seen the most The drawbridge had cost Their lives to no avail And the time is what we lost Can it hold me up The surface is so frail And is it all enough I can see moonlit spies glimmering on the lake hidden by a glove Dragonflies say goodbye as their wings flutter up to create a buzz Don't know why in the shine, do they sing, do the lights, still they bounce off us I want to leap but I'm scared of what's to come
