By June
We will meet halfway
past the ifs and Mays
Oh June, my love
She's a six on hold,
ageless age of gold
Oh June, my love
Fireflies set ablaze
undying nights,
ashes of the longest day
A crow flies over Rome,
her sidereal home
Oh June, my love
Come and shine on me,
graceful starlike three
Oh June, my love
Fireflies set ablaze
undying nights,
ashes of the longest day
Fireflies set ablaze
undying nights,
ashes of the longest day
Scatter a new dawn
Within a shrine
of pine
twain intertwine
like Yin and Yang
spinning a string into a song
like china and oolong
swirling in a sarong
writing unaware that all along
it was you,
come dawn anew
Meet,
dream,
stay
