phoenix james - at end of play lyrics

she flows across my mind
drowning my heated thoughts
like cool water
on a hot sunshine day
washing over my body
and my soul
she is the purple rain
the purple haze
the indigo
and in i go
high and bright
like the great sky light
shining at its height
glistening across her pool
a shimmering fine delight
water cool blue
hot brown skin
i’m just a fool
caught up in her whirlwind
she comes
she goes
to where only heaven knows
all i ever know
is i’m the one she chose
to bring sun to shadows
on nights like those
which brings somе to me
on days like thesе
i take what i need
their warmth
their heat
and then set them free
because nothing stays
most of all
not she
not her
not them
not me
we
each fade away
at end of play
at the end of the day
she said
her syrup kisses were forever
i begged her to differ
as that would be a pleasure
but they will only exist
for as long as we remember
the reasons we endeavour
and like palm trees in a hurricane
we held on
and held on
and became strong again
through strong winds
through heavy rains
until calmer days maintained
and seasons changed
to bright skies blue
and a clear water view
with sunlight shining through
palm trees and greenery
now looking like new
that’s the way it seems to me
now looking at you
within a different pursuit
a new lens to see through
new and improved
and focused
from deep within
sweet melanin coated skin
finally seeing everything
she didn’t notice a thing
like a passer+by
inside a dream
we were a split team
caught in a slipstream
we fought in a big ravine
we thought we’d stay afloat in
only to be swallowed in the ocean
when the cruel tide rolled in
although we tried
we couldn’t swim
we all die
so many times like this
without realising
feelings slip in and slip out
like catching a fistful of water
caresses turn to clenched fists
smiles turn to gritted t++th
war starts when the truth ends
men yearn for a distant peace
far away from the activism
it’s here
and i’m at ease
washes over me like a baptism
setting a captive free
