Your Woman

The air breathes fair
A blow akin to your grandmother’s kiss on your skin
A garden laced with flowers
So close to the outside showers
Where I kissed the bumps on your wrists
Innocence, to be missed
I’d be your woman
Let you kiss in your venom
Setting the blood on fire
Feeling my limbs go lighter
Gone, by a breeze
That moved so easy past me
It blew you to a place that I thought only I knew
I’ll bathe in the deepest greens to hide that if you pleased
I’d still have your babies
And you hold me with such power
Plucked me like a flower
And I could never be your woman
Always your man
I am the naked being
On your blanket seeing
You cry

4/4
The candescence, The fluorescence
In the presence, and the message
That she spreads, as she says the breathes of her next
Becoming in a birth
The words survive as she died
To read and cry, forever fly
To rest, the dust, the cusp, to just
Become the air of earth
The beauty to believe
To see, too free
The feelings, the birthings
The cycling for meaning in our looping beats of four
4/4, count off our songs lower
In the past, you let the grass cover/cast
Memories last
To write and preform
Now she’s made of paint
She once took her mother’s words like a saint
Dressed in white, raised by christ
Now she dances on the wall, dreaming
She runs out painting and screaming

She lovingly took you in her mouth
She somehow brought you in and allowed
You to finally breathe
For once you could see
The love you’d been missing
She met a mosaic of a man
Placed together by 1000 hands
The mystery of love
And who we are and one
Day will become
All the love that we try to grow
It won’t last fabricated or go
It’s birthed from energy
What you gift in the people you see
The love that you hold between
She tried to kiss your hands with care
So excited to become the air
One day, with you there
So you and her could be anywhere
“It’s so beautiful our souls are so near”

A Beautiful Iris
04:38
|

|
A beautiful iris draped by a beautiful eyelash
A blue tint wave crashed carrying weight
Her eyes match the skies
Her pale hand scratches the hot sand
My cool wrist, towards the water insist
Let us depart in swim, weightless brought together again
I want to know the sound of you thinking
Want to kiss on your skin
As you breathe on the bed letting in our oxygen
If we should separate, I hope you find a place
That’s beautiful and warm
So safe, where you’re born
You deserve a place for peace
I hope love drapes over like rain
And it glimmers at you the same
As if we still remain
And will you recognize the air of my love?

Flame Necklace
06:11
|
|||
|
The soft light that paints your skin
The first time, peace within
A flame necklace
That decorates your sweet skin
You gift a bliss
Travel back to then
And you could braid my hair
And I’ll wish I was there
These hands will never exist again
Your hands will never exist again
These eyes will never be the same
From birth to death my soul is the same
I will always love you
Loving pink coats over deepest blue
I will always kiss you
In your arms
Now I’m new

Mother Earth's Daughter
05:39
|
|||
|
Cradle in her arms
Safe, so safe from harm
Sew a blanket, magnificent colour
Keep me under your cover
Genevieve’s love was all she needs
“How beautiful our souls are so near”
In the yard she plants the seeds
With you, so safe from fear
And she looks at her and she says, she says
“You are the air of the summer
The path to lead the traveler
The nectar for bees to gift their mother
In the beautiful garden, a flower
The tree that we use for cover
The unicorn that leads the spider
The love that shares between one and another
Mother Earth’s only daughter”
She says
“You are Mother Earth’s only daughter
My perfect forever, forever
You are Mother Earth’s only daughter
The most beautiful lover
You are Mother Earth’s only daughter”
She is the trees and they are her.

Emily Holds The Grass

The stars were so loud she tried to muffle the sounds with the surrounding grass but she found it did nothing besides tickle her ears. Instead she sat up and cried as she looked out at the remaining blue of the beautiful everything in the sky and the life she had left to live

I'm Glad To Be Anywhere
02:49
|

|
Kiss you on the head in our bed
Can’t believe that you’re all that I see
Somehow it’s true that I’m in love with you
And can’t believe that you’re in love with me
And you’re deflecting all the feeling is cutting
Stabbing, breaking, you try not to bleed
You’re everything filled with feelings and I’m reaching
I believe I can cut through and read-in
But it’s beautiful to be anywhere at all
And I’m glad to be anywhere at all with you
I layed there in the october air
Then winter came, there was no one to blame
Your soul carries on even if your body moves on
If you love your skin then I love what’s within
And I just want to be the lines that form from years of you smiling
But it’s beautiful to be anywhere at all
And I’m glad to be anywhere at all
But it’s beautiful to be anywhere at all
And I’m glad to be anywhere at all with you

Dead Leaves
02:37
|
|||
|
As the world makes it rounds
Let the wind make the sound
And our door open-bound
To let in the dead leaves
In our house she walks
And to me she talks
Towards the garden she flocks
To feel the dead flowers
In our house we sing
All the notes we bring
Harmonies, intertwined thing
Sing songs of dead poets
With soft hands, pack the fruit
All the food in a towel suit
And with my hands I’ll peel the fruit
And bring her the peeled oranges

A Portrait Of Love

Hey ya'll, its Quentin on 9/24/23, I am currently mixing my newest album, "How Beautiful Our Souls Are Near!!", and this is the instrumental track
I just spent 3 hours mixing "Mother Earth's Daughter", it kept peaking out on me, too much bass, skipping over sections of the song. That sucked. But I'm about to finish mixing the record by doing "4/4", which will probably be and equal hell, so I did this song in-between them.
If you're coming from "Guitar Improv #1", I'm sure you know that Frank Ocean did not fucking drop or even deliver that good of a Coachella performance, including cancelling his 2nd weekend. It;'s whatever, we're all human. Self Control acoustic was awesome though. New animal collective in 5 days!, plus I'm getting my physical drivers license on Wednesday, the same day I'm seeing Jockstrap!!!, then on Thursday I have a Jazz-Band concert, then on Friday I have recording with V and Jordan for the ACC album. Then that next morning we're gonna go to the record store by Jordan's house. The most full week I've ever had.
Anyways, thanks for reading & Listening. Love You

The river was bending
The mountains were peaking
The grace of humans
The love around breathing
The river was creaking
Her golden head lay dreaming
I lay here breathing
Just happy to be living
The river is happy just to be full
The earth has to wake and be beautiful
As the sun rises, we’re in a lull
The oneness of our soul
Every human being as a whole
And everything is free really in this world
Give it away with a good soul
I am nothing and it’s beautiful
