Lilypad, Lilypad

lilypad, bowlegged since you were young
with a tear where all your memories come undone

lilypad, one night I saw you pause
your voice broke mid sentence,
your weird little hands reached your eyes
I, I had forgotten what that was like

to believe, believe outside yourself
it is hard to say something honest
it is hard to say something honest

lilypad, the place where you were raised
I will bury these diaries
when the city repaves the street
I won’t let them belong to you or to me

and when you ask, no, never anyone
how the rain splashes up to your ankles
when god gives you the strength to run

to believe, believe outside yourself
it is hard to say something honest
it is hard to say something honest
how I long to say something honest

lilypad, so tired so very long
stepping out into the backyard
where the world goes on and on
