Sit close Let me tell you every truth I know I could read your poetry and prose We could contemplate the syllables If you so wish for it If so Let your consciousness dissolve like snow Watch the branches replicate your bones Place the precious palms among your own Be the water and the boat, and so I stow Every thought that lies inside of me Atop the shelves, amidst my library So when you're older you may visit me When I'm at peace Patiently, I reach up above I can see the ocean as I stare at the stars I will place my knowledge in your hands It's okay if you don't understand just yet Speak slow Let me ask before I take a note May I read a couple words you wrote? Every page you touch, the letters glow From the ashes do we grow And I boast I can comprehend the words you spoke You're the writer and the quote, and so I hope Every thought that lies inside of me Someday finds its way from soul to speech So I may bestow our legacy Like you to me Patiently, I reach up above I can read the ocean as I write with the stars I will place your knowledge in my hands Flick a page until I understand, I do, oh Like trying to speak while remaining in silence Like facing your fears without feeling frightened I'll never know if I'm yet to try it I'll do my best to stay open-minded Patiently, I reach up above I can see the ocean as I stare at the stars I will place my knowledge in your hands Flick a page until I understand, I do, oh Patiently, I reach up above I can read the ocean as I write with the stars I will place your knowledge in my hands Flick a page until understand, I do, oh
