fireflies and orange skies
in June after the storm breaks
train whistles shake yellow walls
a new place for the heartache
like every ray of light will gleam before it fractures
you broke the glass; I’ll paste it back together
time will pass and I’ll learn to love it better
this mosaic in Evanston
ice cubes crack in whiskey glasses
poured out on the porch steps
stars don’t shine past Chicago's light
I knew but each time I forget
like every ray of light will gleam before it fractures
you broke the glass; I’ll paste it back together
time will pass and I’ll learn to love it better
this mosaic in Evanston
and I’lll float in Lake Michigan in the dark
and I won’t even wonder where you are
like every ray of light will gleam before it fractures
you broke the glass; I’ll paste it back together
time will pass and I’ll learn to love it better
this mosaic in Evanston
time will pass and I’ll learn to love it better
this MOSAIC in Evanston
