Brambleberry

from Bird Heart by Skye Zentz

/

lyrics

I am a Brambleberry
I am a firefly
I've got an ember in my throat
I'm sort of scared of falling
and I like to sing and cry
I shine my light in little notes

And you could call me crazy
Call me a lazy mess
a Tangle of Love and Clothes and Shoes
but this season's got me shaking
and I do believe again
Believe I'm finding home with YOU

Here, in the everafter
The summer sun is fierce
a Spotlight shining on our flaws
and I've not been the perfect partner
Don't always make the bed but
I'll shine a light when we get lost

and our love is like a puzzle
Our love's a treasure map
with shortcuts and dead ends and trap doors too
But you let me be myself and
You take good care of me
I've never trusted like I trust in YOU


I am a sparkle siren
I am a grumblebird
I'm learning how to tell the truth
But you're not some common diamond
You are simply stunning
and this Brambleberry's running home to you!
