The Time & The Place

 

East of tomorrow

west of the moon

A moment in time

too late and too soon

 

Playing a love song

that hides in delight

Calling us upward  

through storms in the night

 

East of tomorrow

west of the moon

Our past and our future

uncouple and swoon

 

Life in that moment

death left behind

The time and the place

—forever defined
