A Doe And Two Fawns

I stand at the window looking out

Waiting for something

I don’t know what

They don’t see me

So they’re not scared

But they tread lightly everywhere

Here comes the darkness

It comes down fast

Run to the ocean

Leave tracks in the sand

Sunset’s pink and orange and lavender and grey

There’s a bird on a branch at the top of a tree

We wanted the world to give us a chance

Now we’re pushed out to the edges

If we stand still blinded by the lights

Is it murder or suicide?

Here comes the darkness

It comes down fast

Run to the ocean

Over the sand

Here comes the darkness

It comes down fast

Run to the ocean

Leave tracks in the sand
