bored this morning...

sitting on the edge and im waiting for the end
i'm watching it carefully, this sunset of mine
skeptical of its watercolor glory
i wonder what it hides from me
behind fire sparked eyes

my glare cannot flaw its beauty, it remains
why, i wonder, would God fool me in this way?
i assure myself that nothing is this beautiful,
and there is no such thing as peace
the sun and the stars, they dance falsehoods tonight

don't lie to me my tangerine skies
because here on the edge of where my world ends
i need you more than i have before
so show me nothing you dont mean
show me truth though i may not believe it

b.d.
