BEIRA
I’ll wear my thickest pair of gloves
He’ll try to hold my hand, but he won’t get close
Here we are at the turn of July
In floods of aching light
And I don’t know why I’m defined
By the shifting moods of the wild
Chorus:
Beira, you are alone in summer
You crave the glow of lowlight
You’re not what they say, you are the dying embers
The cold that brought us to fire
I keep you in my sheath
And draw you when I need
To see if I can see both sides
Clouds trickle by without a sound
They hang upon the air
And bear their weight down
Didn’t I pin when you carried
The swallows away for another year?
But they came back, and I barely noticed
Their song fall in my ear
And I don’t know why I’m defined
By the shifting moods of the wild
Chorus
I keep you in my sheath
And draw you when I need
To see if I can see both sides
To sharpen my view of both sides
I won’t go looking for the dark
But I’ll move willingly
When it comes back
