Molly

Molly cries in the middle of the ice rink Her friends are paying her no mind The blades are spinning awfully close to the side So I speed to offer her embrace She says, "Where'd you learn to go that fast?" It's not like I was moving all that quickly But to her, I was on a rocket Passing galaxies of light and wonder And free is what I want to be with her next to me We laid down in the grass one day Speaking nothing, feeling late The clouds were magnets for our sister eyes And then Sue Palumbo swung a club And dragons came and challenged us So I stood up straight, and I offered her this song But how was I supposed to make A piece of art with that at stake? And what without at least a pen and paper? I am sure that she sees me well Her heart is huge, everyone can tell The days are passing, and there's no stopping it at all At all At all At all How many times have I fallen victim? Gave myself the answers, but never the questions Do you ever feel as I do? Shake your head, and breathe if you want to I just want to love my family Hold my shelter and lie in the symmetry I just want to hold my family I just want to love my family Hold my shelter and lie in the symmetry I just want to hold you, Molly
