If i could

a way that isn’t in the needle’s eye
a song without a sad tempo
a towel to wipe the stained heart
a night that will swallow the sun forever
a word to lift me from limbo
a scream that swallows the tears
a color that can make me spotless
a heart that cannot give me up
if I could,
I would have all these in my dream alive.
