public library (usa) - cedar chest lyrics

Loading...

the sun and dust still dance
in the windows of this forgotten church
i called my own

brush away the cobweb’s trail
from the rusted lock that once held fast to
the hardwood sides

scr+pbooks of falls
in the halls of memories
with the leaves from the trees
pressed in these

patchworks of quilt
sewn with care, designs so rare
and the cameo pins
deep within

weather+beaten overcoats
flat paper dolls that still hand in hand
embrace this life

an old brass picture frame
the dog+earеd edge of this fading still
from a fading time
footprints of timе
trace a line, a pathway to
all the days of my youth
filled with truth

pages of verse
never heard, a troubled rhyme
that still fights on a page
that decays

only a box filled with dreams
tattered and torn at the seams
past glories faded like scenes
on covers of old magazines

brush away the cobweb’s trail
from the cedar chest that still holds my world
in hardwood sides

the tabernacle’s closed
by brittle straps, and my life remains
a mystery
