Above The 60th Parallel - Sculptured

This is why the morning is so beautiful

Even though my stomach feels so I’ll

I can see the sun peeking at me

Anxious to dry the dew covered world

And I sow myself into the Earth

And my skin takes on the dirt

And I bury my tears in the Earth

As my blood feeds the world

And I bury my tears in the Earth

I live each day

Digging myself away

Buried beneath the sound

Of time passing by

What the sun took away

Remains here today

Alone in the world

Embraced by the Earth

The ground is richer at this time

And the plants are green and damp with rebirth

And I bathe myself in the Earth

And my skin becomes the dirt

And I bury my tears in the Earth

As my blood drowns the world

And I bury my tears in the Earth

I live each day

Digging myself away

Buried beneath the sound

Of time passing by

What the sun took away

Remains here today

Alone in the world

Embraced by the Earth

I live each day

Digging my grave

To rest beneath the ground

While time begins again

Once the ages are rebuilt

As they were before

The sun will be watching

And morning will fall again
