Stars During Day (My Paradise) Poem by Shane Engisch

I see the stars during day
with young and old just like me
dark grey blue clouds
behind a burnt calico tree
velvet lightning from my fingertips
kissing and true words only from our lips
multicolored raindrops bursting to the ground
and when we speak we echo all around
we echo all around
echo all around
we echo all around
echo
I don't see it and I don't care about what it should have been
all I see is what I love
and what I really miss
don't complain I'm not there
I'm in a better place
this is my stop I got my grin
if only you could see my face

Mountains green and full of waves
coming from a smooth warm breeze
animals free and untamed
calm with their spirit just the same
no room for time because it doesn't exist
free your mind and center into bliss
open up your heart and grab yourself a brush
think of nothing tragic
you got a magic canvas
That will echo all around us
it'll echo all around us
it'll echo
it'll echo all around us
oh echo

I don't see it and I don't care about what it should have been
all I see is what I love
and what I really miss
don't complain I'm not there
I'm in a better place
this is my stop I got my grin
if only you could see my face

A golden silhouette upon the shadows from the sun
the lion sleeps within my pride
while the wolf howls at night
they rule my land when I'm gone
searching for my queen
to take her out of this world
and back into my dreams

who you are
is exactly who I am
who we are is different when you understand
who you are
is exactly who I am
who we are is different when you understand

I don't see it and I don't care about what it should have been
all I see is what I love
and what I really miss
don't complain I'm not there
I'm in a better place
this is my stop I got my grin
if only you could see my face
