Eyeless In Gaza - Picture the Day

Picture the day
Can you still remember
Painting the pages
While pouring thunder
Splashed in the window
And you wished for summer

Chew on a pencil
With your thoughts boiling
Think of her
And him
And yourself
Spoiling
Clutching the back of your neck
As its tearing

Imagine

Summer gold on your lips
Tracing snakes
On friendly shoulders
Making a face
When you think
You'll get older

You take giant steps
Then you're off ground

Under tables
Play cats cradle

Talk to each other
As if you're crazy

Pacing your pace
To a single rhythm
Standing in rings
With fingers linking
Somebody calls you
But you
You're not listening

Picture the day
Can you still remember
Painting the pages
While pouring thunder
Splashed in the window
And you wished for summer
