Slumber Hard, Dream Deep

The darkening of the day The world can finally breathe To speak with honest heart Defining what's beneath The middle of the stars The promises we keep The darkening of the day Slumbers hard, dreams deep The spark in every flame The friction forming heat A gift of fuel and air Combusting where they meet They meddle with themselves Not knowing why we weep The spark in every flame Slumbers hard, dreams deep Under right conditions All falling into space Confluence and happenstance Might seem from the same place All these constant wonders May start to seem mundane The miracles and matter All teeming out of the profane The germ of every seed Potentially a birth Filling our lives with love And gives a soul it's worth We tend our lives with hope This garden we will keep The germ of every seed Slumbers hard, dreams deep
