She flew through her seasons

                                                   she flew through her seasons
And as her aim fell short again she reasoned with her demons
To stay in bed and leave unsaid the words that she's kept close
The breaking in me says to leave but I don't want to go

She packed her half of what was left and booked a morning line
The last words spoke a wisp of smoke as half her heart took flight
She's known for half forever hearts on fire never last
And still she longs for burning love and leaves behind her ash

We can't forever spring and summer love, you must agree
If love remained our lives unchanged then why should seasons be?
But when it's good it's understood it's certain not to last
For all the clawing in an autumn never lets us rest

She settled into some new skin where she could leave her shape
And wore the hope of she who roped new hearts about a nape
When weeks have passed since she was glad to recognize him there
The shapes the same but brand new skeins once more she shakes and swears

If all you see is ending please love look the other way
I don't want lies, and each love lies and aches to make me stay
I must have dreams; I cannot dream when you won't let me free
You'll find home but not with me and
