Mainly because I don't skate anymore, but whatever. I don't have anywhere to post my writing for critique but here.
This one is called "Hymn to a Deaf Man"
I could walk on eggshells all day long,
Without anywhere to go,
I could have something to fall upon,
But where I'll fall, I just won't know.
And if you tell me when or where,
I don't know if I'll hear,
Because the trust just isn't there,
And I know you're not near.
When the day comes,
Who will know where we'll fly,
The crash from above,
Will tell us if we live or die.
Yeah, I know we haven't talked in a while,
But it's been so hard,
All these things are starting to pile,
And turning to you isn't where I'd like to start.
Now I'm not saying I don't want you here,
I'm only saying I can't feel you near,
I'm only saying what I thought was clear,
I'm only saying what I wish you'd hear.
When the day comes,
Who will know where we'll fly,
The crash from above,
Will tell us if we live or die.
When the day comes,
Don't let my mother cry,
If only I could reach so high,
Oh God, I'll try, I swear I'll try.
