(at dawn the birds are loudest)
another day will come
like falling stars, I see..
rising up to meet the sun
don't lean back on what you know
too fast, when you fall
reach for another day, reach for a better way
make it beautiful

Long winding pathways lead here
vines tangle through branches to reach the light
under canopy, soft and secure
the journey beckons bright
Breath of fresh air blowing through the room,
brushing as we move
Heart wide, soft might,
look into my eyes, feast on my insides
Places hidden and guarded
suddenly open, expand
Old wounds deeply forgotten, remembered and spoken
As time continues to spin
Days passing, full and aglow
Less sleep but more tales from the road
Find balance, ebb and the flow
Let this one sing you home
Breath of fresh air blowing through the room,
brushing as we move
Heart wide, soft might,
look into my eyes, feast on my insides
Places hidden and guarded
suddenly open, expand
Old wounds deeply forgotten, remembered and spoken
As time continues to spin

the art of surrender

Drips on my tongue
Stretch til I can’t run
Fever chills- looking to you for assurances still
Bend and scrape
Surfaces cracked, insides wait
There’s the door, can’t you see I’m hungry for more
Like a dance, it’s back and forth
One lead one follow
Role switch, begin again
One step joy, the other sorrow
Dive deep,
if not you’ll miss out, either way you’ll lose sleep
Hold your own
Alone or together you will take me home
Life is change, so am I
Life is changing, so am I
I catch glimpses of it from the corner of me eye
You were warm and nearly there
I was open, now I’m scared
Lost in moments, motionless
My mind’s a twist with all of it
Layers unfurling like pieces of silk
Reaching for edges not sure where to look
Fluster and fury I’m grasping at strands
Wondering where all these pieces will land

Days go by, I fall apart again
Build me up to the sky
I enclose worlds, inside my arms.
Written on this page, I look towards the past
Fall apart too fast, try to pull myself back
I am an open heart
Written on this page I look towards the past
Fall apart too fast, try to pull myself back
And fall apart again, I say
Days go by, I fall apart again
You built me up too high
I exposed walls around your heart
Come back now, don’t drift too far
I see you, holding it together
I know it’s hard now, it won’t always be so
Change will come, you will grow
Written on this page, I look towards the past
Fall apart too fast, try to pull myself back
I am an open heart
Written on this page I look towards the past
Fall apart too fast, try to pull myself back
Chin up, let your eyes glow

(slow down)
Approaching a familiar place
From anywhere, any time
(I know this place)
Light refracts, shimmers off surfaces in my mind
Mirrors that change and reflect more than I see or can track
How will I get back?
How many times have we met here?
Why is the path so unclear?
Can we merge without all the pain unraveling?
How will we find, how can we see?
All that is buried down deep
All of these pieces inside me
I didn’t know to look
Didn’t know to try
Journey through time
Now I look, now I see (close your eyes)
Now I’ll grow, now I can be me(see me)
All this dreaming holds me tight inside a fleeting life
Let it go let it be(come close)
Growing up out from the seed(follow the flow)
I’ve seen you here before
Come close
Once more

a long term venture

Brave words, said in moments that carried weight.
the way, eyes upturned, smiles on our face, we could wait.
Build slow, let the moments come and go
Don’t dream too big you say,
Don’t reach too far, I don’t know how to reign it in
But we laugh, at what I do
When you tell me to do less
I do more instead
Always pushing into somewhere else
Shifting things as I go
The dream we built was bigger than our old house
Pieces of it always had to go
We try to talk, it doesn’t really work
Thank fucking god we have more than words
Might not be what you mean, but it is what I heard
Write to me in song
Write to me in thought
Write to me in touch
Let’s venture out into the unknown together.
And go out with a bang

A Trusted Other Portland, Oregon
A collaboration between friends Lynne Piper & Denver Bon aka drank november, who met over zoom music school as covid vaccinations were rolling out and the possibility of sharing in person space with other humans became a glimmer of possibility again. They quickly started sending Ableton files back & forth, which became their first album 'a trusted other'. ... more
