iris from clearly by zera bloom

open the window Iris
it's so sensible to remind yourself
follow your footprints Iris
circles are springing everywhere
in your square room

it's shocking to hold yourself
outside of forgiveness
petals are raining
on your daily commute
doesn't matter what you've done
doesn't matter what you've come through
but it pins you to the minute
and empties you of space
and it pulls you down to the stillest place

open the window Iris
it's so sensible to remind yourself
follow your footprints Iris
circles are springing everywhere
in your square room

is there a star overhead you
across your life
your twin dancing on the other side?
can you fall through colors
throughout the night
and draw them to the ground?

it's shocking to hold yourself
outside of forgiveness
wind all around you
is this where you begin?
doesn't matter what you've done
doesn't matter what you've come through
petals are raining
is this where you begin?

open the window Iris
it's so sensible to remind yourself
follow your footprints Iris
circles are springing everywhere
in your square room
