There's a river the atlas forgot to name
A dirt lane that never learned shame
I stand where the ink runs out to grade
I promised myself I'll be okay I chased every arrow,
every dotted line
Till silence said,
your compass is time
End of the map, I'm finally still
No more chasing what I can't fulfill If
love's the border I couldn't get past
End of the map, I'm home at last
I hear you laugh and the cattail reeds
I bless it softly and then let it leap
I write your name once in trailer dust
Then wipe it away like an act of trust
No north,
no south,
just open air I carry less weight when I lay down the prayer
End of the map,
I'm done with the fight The stars
look different when you stop at night
If love's the border I couldn't get past End of the map,
I'm home at last
