A Piece

It's beautiful a distraction

That eclectic slice of newness

Stringing out a lil piece of unknown

The strange glimmer in the dark

Sometimes, a sliver of shade

Sometimes, a sharp ray of hope

The haunting voices

The light hustle

A gunshot, a red puddle

Take me away now

From a burden of expectations

From the servitude against disappointment

Give me some love

Give me a little more, may be

Whisper into my ears your lullaby

Miles away, I hide

Miles away, I yearn

I can't choose that I care

I can't choose that warmth I feel

Eyes on the prize, love

The warmth and the medallion

The ring and the certificate

I will give you all but a piece of me

I ask too, for all but a piece of you

Here and now is what we've got

Hopes of tomorrow

And an even better after..

Eyes on the prize love

We'll have it all but a piece of ourselves
