There's my heart
Along the roadside
Left out in a thunderstorm
Safe in the tall grass

Trouble in the sky
Overhead hammer clouds
Deafening the world
Around us

Pillow soft to touch
When you fly that high
Leave your soul
In a safety deposit box

Vision obscured with rain
Skin withering
Under your fingertips
Outside your own region

Travel delays and warnings
Forgotten visitors waiting
For your return
Did you find it yet

It's there
Along the roadside
In the tall grass
