Our eyes may cross paths


I like how we got where we are,
I look forward to where we will be
Our eyes may cross paths,
Journeys travelled upon the spine
Of American dreams and schemes

I like where you lay your head
I look at the imprints left by you
Our eyes may cross paths,
I took the summit to see the belly
Of where we all came from

I like the way you part your lips
I look for the water to wet them
Our eyes may cross paths
Just a smidgen of thoughts
Like the rivers that douse the soul
