Translucent. Nothing. Everything.


Under a translucent tree Where the leaves fall Through the open window Surrounding me Consumed in a blizzard Of green Looking at them And they, through me Lost in a photograph A faded memory Of anything that we can be Take the photo that I’m lost in And if you care to see Unbend the tiny corner ‘Cause Darling I miss you and me Where sunbeams so radiant Are melted by the snow And the branches catch the wind To set the night aglow I would never stop to think What this wonder could be In a million years, would It cross my mind? Not if you’re beside me So tell me would you… See me through a Translucent tree Become lost in the twisted Branches And play the falling leaves Dance in a blizzard of purest green? Watch the sun melt And the snow begin to gleam See the wind set night aglow And just forget all you’ll ever know Oh Darling, if your still singing I’ll keep the melody, and Hold it safe right beside me I’ll wait here forever Under a translucent tree For you to just Come and find me
