Volcanic

You can blame me for a century
It’s never gonna make less of me
And you’ve always been something I’ve looked up to
And you’re still hella blue
Like an ocean so deep or a canyon so proud
You don’t need to speak to make something loud
And you’ve got an intricate soul to weave
When you used to say something I would just believe
But now you’re so quiet and absent a stare
It’s hard to know if you’re even there
Or if I’m just holding out hope
And I know there were days you tried to cope
And sometimes you didn’t manage but you kept your head up
And we don’t need the fireworks to call it love
Coz you’ve always got a heat that simply burns
Like the earth on an axis around the sun it turns
And I’m left ajar like a door that you’ve opened
And I may have said a thing or two about my elopement
With a boy I don’t really know
But he’s been everywhere I seem to go
And he’s not your superior but he may be your equal
And this midnight might just be a sequel
To a story that begun an eon ago
I just thought that you should know
So I slipped paper planes out between the crack
Of light to say I want him back
And I never really let go of what held me tight
I will be the forest we both ignite
With our cacophonous flame that makes a furnace roar
I watch my spirit fly as you soar
And the rivers pay testament to
The source that was me and you
